CONCEPT SKETCHES.....

I WAS VERY UNSATISFIED WITH THE FIRST FEW CONCEPTS THAT I HAVE COME UP WITH SO I DECIDED TO REVISIT IT... AFTER A FEW SKETCHES THESE ARE MY NEW AND IMPROVED CONCEPTS

ISN'T IT BOOTIFUL!!!

NOT SURE IF THIS WOULD BE TOO COMFORTABLE TO SIT ON BUT IT SURE IS AMAZING TO LOOK AT....

SEATING POSITIONS

After a bit of research i found that majority of people are more relaxed being seated at a lower angle as compared to a straight 90 degree angle, not only are they more comfortable but at the same time it has less strain on their lower back.
All images above simply show different people and different seating positions and it also shows how the majority of people are doing damage to their backs without realizing it.

AMAZING CARDBOARD CHAIR !!!!

CONCEPT MODELS....

These are a few concept models that i made, playing around with different shapes, forms and locking method... simply exploring on how far i could take different forms.

CONCEPT SKETCHES

RESEARCH

INSPIRATIONS

inspirations on cardboard furniture, forms, shapes, locking system etc....

CONCEPT ONE

In this concept i have incorporated two armrests these could also be used as cup holders. The chair will be made up of 6 panels in total and will have extra panels inside for extra support.

CONCEPT TWO

This design is quite basic, it consist of two circular panels top and bottom, in the center will be panels intersecting with one another to create a strong core.

CONCEPT THREE

In this design i started with a rectangular seat, stool legs are at 450mm in height the legs will at 85 degrees and will be held together with a jigsaw locking system.

CONCEPT FOUR

This design was inspired by aarnio-eero's screw table, i am using a hexagon shape with a jigsaw locking system.This chair will be used in a small lounge/cafe area for visitors to sit, relax and have a rest during the exhibition. It will be located outdoors replacing the messy and very unattractive plastic chairs and tables.

100% Design Tokyo

Existing lounge area which i think could use some more attractive chairs, stools.

100% Design Toyko

Here is an image of people having a rest outside where ever they can, Design opportunity here is to create an outdoors open lounge and bar area or even a series of benches for people to relax.

100% Design Tokyo

Outside is a large area with table and chairs, Design opportunity here is to create a large outdoors dinning and bar area with a bit more class compared to the existing area provided to exhibitioners.

Inside the pavilion

Interior view showing stands which are set up for displays of products, lighting, chairs etc… I think it would interesting for this area to have a café inside so people are able to rest and grab a snack or some beverage.
