Cardboard stool project

Fluted cardboard is an incredible material,  in the class project you will construct a stool using only the cardboard sheet provided.

Take a close look at the image above of a cardboard stool that holds up to 150kg by Australian designer Anthony Dann. LINK

Sketch the basics of this design in groups and explore how triangulation is used to give the stool its strength.

Once you are ready start to develop your own design and remember to keep the proportions within a bounding box 450 x 450 x 450mm.

Good Luck!
