parkchair
ideation
In order to create a park bench that stands out from all other benches, we went in search of solutions beyond the boundaries of production possibilities. Designing a product like this requires a wide range of ideas and a deep vision of the end product. The ideas that got existence during this project were meant to be translated into visual sketches which provided us with insight to come up with more similar ideas.
inspiration
At the moment we got in the park, we got inspired by the environment around the place where the bench should be placed. Trees, shrubs and tree branches have contributed to our vision and following development steps.
generative design
During the project we designed the park chair with generative design software. We took this step because we wanted to make the impossible aspects in the production possible. To be specific, to design a park chair with low material usage and the highest strong-stiff properties. By using as little material as possible, we can significantly reduce the contribution to CO2 production emissions. This chair will be placed in the park, which means that it must be ”green” besides other trees.
