Arc Chair

2015

Brief: Design and build an ergonomically-considered and structurally-resolved chair that is no larger than 20x20x30" and that comfortably supports an adult. Using primarily a half a sheet (48” x 48”) of .75” thick Baltic Birch plywood.

Arc Chair is a multi-purpose café chair designed with low cost in mind. Humans have evolved with constant body motion and easily becoming strained from static body positions. The arc-shaped backrest offers dynamic seating positions while also serving as an armrest.
