Short Course in Introduction to Chair Design Prototyping

This course will guide you through the design process as you design a chair. Whilst furniture design is not limited to chairs, we have used a chair in this course as a point of teaching. You will touch on scale, working with templates and quarter scale models of your chair design. You will be required to sketch and create mood boards or sample boards that represent your chair design 'look and feel'. This course is aimed at all designers and creatives, even non-creatives interested in designing simple easily produced custom furniture. Exposure to design, drawing for design, technical drawing especially CAD will be an advantage but is not a requirement. By the time this course is complete you will be able to present your design journey and accompanying final design through sketching, drawings, models and if you are up to the challenge prototypes and or a full-scale model.
