Esquisse four

Understanding Form

Using only cardboard provided (no glue or fixings) create a:

• ‘structural’ system that is strengthened under load
• provides a seat and possibly a back support
• works within standard seating proportions

Mock up of the chair, sclae 1:4
made some mistakes but we thought that it would be a strong chair!




Start to make the 1:1 model.........

SO, we bought the cardboard! each board is 1.5 x1.2 m


Drew the lines on cad, then mark it with laser, for easier marking. and to make sure it is in the right size.


Some boards that have been cut into pieces as part of the furniture


Some mistake happened during the laser cut, it burned some of our cardboard! :(

Put the pieces together, building the chair!
Looks like it works well...


Finish! Tried to sit on it, at it is strong enough.. and the back works well too!
