Material & Manufacture
The material I have chosen for my chair is sheet acrylic, clear coloured. The chair comes in a range of five colours which are all clear coloured sheet acrylic. The reasoning for this is I feel that it makes the chair feel more modern and unique, with the acrylic being clear coloured you can also see the whole chair from all angles throught the chair itself in some cases. This adds a new sense and experience to the chair, whilst giving it it's own personality.
The processes involved in the manufacture of the chair are only thre simple steps, laser cut, polished and strip heater bending. Firstly the section need to be cut out of the acrylic sheet for the chair, before polishing off the edges of the acrylic to add a cleaner finish to the chair at the end. Once these two things are done the sheet of acrylic can be bent it the places required to shape the chair. Giving you the finish product.
