Reinventing Play in Everyday Objects

OBJECTIVE

Design a chair that represents my design aesthetic - fun, simple, whimsical, and something that will make others smile.

MOTIVATION

Playgrounds are a great space for kids to play, be creative, and fine little moments of joy. What are spaces that allow adults to do the same? I wanted to explore how to incorporate some aspects of play into everyday normal objects.

ABOUT
