This is my lazy wood chair, it's made from wood leather and steel. I wanted to make a chair that was symmetrical as an outer form but asymmetrical with its supports. I used Pipes for the frame not because I wanted the user to get their limbs stuck in the chair but because I wanted a frame that was able to breathe because I am the type of person who gets hot easily. The cushions are made with leather because it's a good material that gets cold easily when indoors and always keeps me cool. The metal studs on the bottom are for people who like to scratch/ massage their feet while sitting. The design of the leg rest is made so that your legs are not too high or too low. personally when I have my legs up high I tend to fall asleep easily especially during a movie, but at the same time I want my legs up so I can relax. Having no head rest was on purpose because the user is now free to stretch his neck/head over the top of the frame to get a good stretch in the neck, my brother does this a lot so I am assuming other people do this as well.
