Abstract
This piece focuses on my method of design through furniture projects. I will be going through my design process for producing a chair with an accompanying stool. My engineering background had gifted me with an abundance of technical skills, but I was still unfamiliar with the process of designing and creating unique functional objects. My goal for the last two years has been to continually develop original and innovative products. In my pursuit for originality, I had to come up with my own approach to dealing with the physical and visual challenges of furniture making.
