Sit Tight On Obedient Legs
Today we begin our next big project in ID Principles: to create a stool using 2 planar and 2 linear materials (one of each minimum), to be submitted and sat on by Dec. 10th. Having just completed the Fruit Holder Exercise (post forthcoming), in which we essentially created stools for fruit, we are now moving in to the real deal. Sketches and sketch models will be due next week, then concept refinement and ultimate construction.
I'm incredible excited about this project because the results will be tangible and highly portable in a portfolio context. I'm interesting in: static tension/integrity, flat-pack, clever, ergonomics/designed instability. Here's some inspiration:
