How can we make a folding chair that emphasizes a contemporary narrative, while using sustainable materials?
I created a full size mockup of an existing folding chair archetype in order to fully understand its mechanism. I added a strap of webbing to act as an arm rest. Then, I moved into CAD after taking measurements of the mockup.
