UrbanFlex

Following the motto "when a designer doesn't know what to do, he makes a chair," I designed this folding chair as part of my basic design university course. The assignment was very open-ended, the only requirement being that the design provides a supportive function in its form.

"UrbanFlex" is the concept for a folding chair with a sober, straight, and symmetrical design language. The design wasn't about reinventing the wheel but rather focusing on aesthetic appeal. In terms of materiality, the chair consists of two components: stainless aluminum and recycled plastic.
