    Success Criteria

    Your specifications should cover functional and physical features based on your research into the attributes of your chosen design

    Your mood board should contain at least 3-4 images of cardboard chairs and construction details.


    Positive: The first chair uses triangular prisms to create a large strong structure. It has a curved tessellated form which is very eye-catching. 

    Interesting : Lazerian Studio's cardboard furniture is inspired by nature such as wasp nests and sea creatures.

    Negative: The chair appears to be very large and is all glued together so it does not have the ability to break down into smaller parts for storage, transport or replacement
