Chair development - final idea




This is toward the final idea/concept. i added in some more slots to lock the chair together. next stage is to make a full scale mock up to see sizing and ergonomics

Chair concept development




Now i am really starting to get somewhere with my chair. The chair all slots togetehr easily in 6 parts. it has the traditional chair shape to it but the way it all locks together is really nice. the main problem is that the back doesnt lock too well so i need to come up with a way of lock that

Stool development into chair



this is a development of my stool. i have been playing with a way of adding a back onto the stool to make a stool. next i will try to refine this further

"This is one instance of my Link Line, a mass customizable contemporary slot together furniture line. The use of a white Formica Brand laminate (roughly 75% recycled material) and FSC certified North American Plywood. There is no glue, no fasteners, no tools needed and the best part about it is it can be assembled in reverse to make a wood chair with white interior highlights. If you want one, you get to choose the scale, the width, the laminate, the icon or graphic engraved into it and the substrate material. I make them out of Plyboo, Medite II and other highly renewable or recycled resources in my little shop in San Francisco.See more at www.cragelmeyer.com"
