Cafe Chair Concepts

This week we started delving into our concept designs for our cafe chairs. My 3 concepts are mostly based from my chosen cafe environment which is Mart 130 which is overlooking Albert Park.


This is some interior pictures of the cafe which I am basing my designs on.

My 3 concept sketches of my designs.


And these are the photographed look of the 1:5 scaledmock ups I did for it!

Esquisse Four - Material Synergy

Hey y'all!

This week we did scaled mock ups of cafe chairs using the same materials, without any glue or fixings. I did 2 different cafe chairs scaled to 1:5. Here they are!

The pros of this cafe chair is that it has a comfortable knee sitting, because of the curve at the edge of the seat which provides flow. The cons of this design is that it might not be easily stackable and might be a bit on the chunky looking side.

This second cafe chair also has its pros and cons. The double layer of the seat, joined with wire, creates a softer impact on the user when seating. It also has a curved backrest which will allow a bit more comfort to users. The cons of this design is that it might be heavy looking for some people's liking.
