The Chunky Chair is, as the name implies, a chair, based on the idea of taking a two-dimensional image and realizing it into a three-dimensional object. The physical laws of nature, such as gravity and properties of materials, are not needed when a shape is created digitally or on paper. This chair was designed by focusing on an image of a curved and flexible object, with material and texture added at the last minute. It aims to resemble the idea that it is pulled out of an animation into the real world. This is not a render, miniature or scale model, but a tangible object, see coffee cup for scale. Made from 6 & 8 cm steam bend oak, finished with bronze screws.
