I choose to design my piece of furniture for the 100% DESIGN TOKYO 2009 because its an exhibition wherby a lot of contemporary designs (national and international) are showcased. This opportunity makes it the perfect place to design my chair that would be based on complex folds and engineering the X-board to its best effiency level in terms of ammount of material usage, strength (tensile and compressive), and ergonomics all together in a small package that could be easily assembled/ disassembled for the period of the show.
Above are few sketches of initial concept ideas and designs presented at previous 100% Design exhibitions.
