SketchChair studio TEI2011
Pages 357 - 360
Abstract
SketchChair is an application that allows novice users to take part in the entire process of designing and fabricating their own full-sized usable chairs from scratch. During the studio, participants will be able to design, build and take home their own scale model paper chair. Participants will be introduced to SketchChair whilst learning how to use a paper cutting plotter to make slice form models. Furthermore we will discuss the considerations around designing tools for customization and CNC production.
