You've Waited Long Enough
All you wonderful people need to know, EXACTLY what it is that I had to do for my final project.
I had to design and build a chair. This means that I had to come up with a concept that I wanted to convey with my chair, figure out a way to convey the message in chair form and finally to build it. We only had to build a model at least, but I went ahead and built a full-damn-sized chair. It isn't the best in the world, but hell I am NOT a carpenter and The DH works with computers...power tools, not so much. Not to mention that the moron at Home Depot cut my (supposedly) square seat, as a rectangle. So, I made due with what I had (very little knowledge, some screws and pieces of wood, and a TON of fucking 'L' Brackets) and this is the final product....

'Dysfunction'
That is seriously my concept, I am not trying to just be funny.

At least the cats can get their fat asses up there, all is not lost.
If anyone wants to see the full project, you can see it HERE
Laugh at my sketches and I send 'Vinny' to kick your ass...I can't draw, suck it up.

I really like it! Can a full size human sit in it? If so then hell you did better than I could have.
Very nice! I know it's supposed to be dysfunctional, but to me it looks slick and well organized, with a twist. Yeah, you'll be a successful designer, no problems. Are you really in to the contemporary modern look?
p.s. I thought your drawings were fine- definitely appropriate to the project & theme. It's hard to draw something that does not yet exist. Another point to consider- a craftsperson could have taken your drawings and made the chair, with a bit of verbal consultation on measurements. As a designer, that's what you want in your drawings.
I love it!~if you ever abandon it to the back of the garage~I'll gladly take it off your hands.
*hugs*
That is a GREAT Chair!!!!!!!

That chair is totally fucking cool! Your teacher better give you an A--it totally fits the concept too.
