Allie Agrella; Week 8; Tubular Chair Design

For my chair design, I wanted create a bench that could be put in a public place, possibly a park or outdoor space. Accordingly, I chose marble in Keyshot so that it would weather well. The bench can be sat on from all sides, and has several small foot stools that are optional. During my trials, I learned how much you can create with a simple pipe. There are so many different ways to makes shapes in Rhino, but this technique seems to be one of the most easily manipulated and fitted to the design of a chair. Although simple in most respects, I had to adapt my design to be something I could keep rounded and not create pipes too hash of difficult to curve around points.
