Cape Chair
Carbon Fiber Fabric (4 yards); Epoxy Resin, Hardener, Filler; 1/2” Steel Tube; Shock Mounts (4)
In designing and fabricating this lightweight chair, I explored carbon fiber as a structural material and a shape-able surface for comfort and support. The single surface of the carbon fiber, contrasted by the rigid steel legs, follows the form of varying double curvatures that respond to structural forces and ergonomics.
Preliminary plywood excercise in collaboration with Max Ouellette-Howitz and Seth Thompson
