final model


Here are the final rendered rhino models of the 'X0X0' chair. I decided to make the backs extremely simple as when they were linked to the legs, like the sketches, they were too difficult. The idea was good but the praticality  hindered the design





model making

making dirty models of the 'X0X0' chair gave an idea of how they would turn out and the different ways they could be placed. The idea is to have chairs to look like a game of noughts and crosses. This massively links in with the 'fun' theme that has been running through this whole project.

sketch ideas

here is the version of the chair


previous ideas

There was a previous idea i had of a chair that i really likes, with a 'O' shape in the back of the seat, and how the back twisted to form the legs as well. Then i realised that this could be used for my 'X0X0' idea.

here are some early sketches of the named 'X0X0' idea



Idea

I had an idea, as i was sitting doing university work, (and i will admit getting rather bored) i noticed that i had been playing 'noughts and crosses' by myself. This gave me th idea to design the utility chair to look like a game of 'noughts and crosses'.
