Design Development - Scale Model Refinement

Was trying to refine the last 1:1 model..
Create locking on the rectangular support, and close the sides...
The 1:5 model didn't work really well, it should work on xanita though.. I think i need to try to make 1:1 with xanita.. hmm -.-'

Design Development - Stool

Design Development - 1:1 Mock Up Process

Started with the template with dimensions on it....

Draw the lines on the cardboard..

Cut!

Finished with 1 template!

Tried to fold the cardboard, to make sure it works... And... It works!

Cut the second part of the chair... Which is the support..

Finish cutting!

Tried to put the 2 parts together....

Ooops.. I did some mistakes with the joint system... tried to think how to make it work... =.='

Wrong joint system occured on the other side as well.. huhh... =.='

but i'm happy with the front view.. looks nice... haha

Figured out the joints on 1 side, creating another hole to lock the board... yaaay!

And the other one! it worked quite well! But i think i should make another joint to lock the square support..

Bottom View of the chair..

I tried to sit on it.. Was scared that i will broke it.. but........ yeay! i made a strong chair! lol! i could sit on it even with a 2mm cardboard! Should work really well on xanita!

Design Development - Scale Model

Sketches, developing the stool... Make it more ergonomics, due to human body's shape...


First model for development!.. hmmm... i think i've made it a bit out of scale.... its too wide... -.-'

Make a new onee......!

Second one.. make it more similar with the innitial concept, trying to make segments on the chair, to create a more comfortable stool.... Worked quite well.. but i thin the locking system wont work that good on xanita board... coz its really hard to insert it to the main structure... Should think more about it.....


Sketches, developing the low chair....

First, it looks going to work well... But.. oops... i did some wrong cutting on the cardboard... hmm.. tried to measure for the xanita in cad, then scale it.. but in some folding parts,, it didnt work well... so.. some failure in measurement!

Kid's Furniture. I found interesting locking system in this furniture, which enables the furniture to looks smooth on its surface.

Inspiring furniture by Johan Carlsson, called YOC or 'Your Own Chair' that doubles as a shopping basket when you're not resting on it.
