CONCEPT GENESIS

Here I explored massive forms that would require the user to define the furniture to their own surroundings. Playing off the idea of a lounging lion, the human lounges on this large massive "jungle gym" in their own private watering hole

FURTHER IDEATION

These were concepts dealing with the same idea, but attempting to solve it in a much simpler and smaller manner

CONCEPT REFINEMENT

During the conceptual process I hit a wall with my sketching. I decided to change mediums to alter my perception of the problem. Working big allowed me to find more expressive forms and gain a new perspective on the problem.

INTERSECTION DEVELOPMENT

Here I took forms from the previous exercise and moved them more fluidly into my concept

DESIGN SOLUTION

The solution is designed to be used in a typical cafe' setting, and incorporated with a sister piece.
