-1:1 corner-


today i was determined to try out the idea based upon the pinart thing, but after a bit of cinema 4d experimentation, i quickly dropped that idea. it's sort of what i had in my head, but the changes i need to make for the static function of the chair will cause it to go into a direction which i think will look like crap.

then i went into the wood workshop to make a something that would allow me to sit in the corner in which the corner was supporting my weight. so, i put two boards together and got this:



the main problem when sitting symetrically in the corning is that one's shoulders are smashed together when leaning back into the corner. it is much more comfortable when sitting along one wall, with the back to the other. therefore, i am going to go back the those damned triangles and design a lounge chair that extends along one wall, while using the corner as support. i will return to the paper and cardboard folding tomorrow to find the form i need.



…oh yea, julie made some tasty macaroni with tomato pesto.
