Ice Chair: the Frozen Form

By Autoplagiarist @iRafMejia
ICE CHAIR: THE FROZEN FORMWhile doing the interiors for my ideal home, I needed a stool to put in the dining area so I decided to just make one of my own design, rather than just downloading a 3D graphic chair from Google SketchUp 3D banks. Anyway, designing the chair would be fun, I thought.
So this is what I came up with. At first I thought of Philippe Starck's "Louis Ghost" chair which was made of, if I'm not mistaken, fiber glass material (or probably just plain ol' clear plastic). The chair's design was Art Deco-ish and it had four bow-shaped legs. This is where I got the crystal clear appearance for the chair.

I named the chair the "Ice" chair. Because it's cool like that. LOL
