HD3D002: Perch Chair Concept




What?
Perch Chair

Why?
As discussed in an earlier post, there are certain phenomenological qualities of the FLER TVS that I'd like to transfers to the new chair:
  1. Arms and back are supported by legs
  2. Hanging arms and back provide flex and bounce
This concept is a slight twist on the hanging back - this concept sees the entire back and seat hanging from the frame. Potentially a disaster? Could be amazing if it stays upright.

How?
Frame: 
10mm or 12mm Mild Steel Rod (bent using jigs made in the workshop) shaped into a cantilever to provide flex and bounce

Fixings: 
MIG Weld (welded in the workshop)

Finish: 
Matt Black Powder Coat (outsource) OR Matt Black Spray Coat (sprayed in the workshop)

Seat: 
Existing FLER TVS seat back/arms flipped upside down and back the front so the back rest becomes the seat frame. Flat bar seat will be used to create the seat.

Seat Back: 
See above.
