Student Work: Furniture Design



Chair Design
For this project, we were given a material limitation—each design could only use 15 sheets of MDF, each measuring 49" W x 97" H x ¼" thick. To add an extra challenge, our instructor turned it into a competition: the top two chair designs would be selected for production. While mine wasn’t chosen, the winning designs were absolutely stunning and well-deserved their recognition.

My inspiration for this piece was the female form—a symbol of perfection and beauty in every way. I began with hand sketches, exploring different silhouettes until I found a shape that truly resonated with me. From there, I transferred the design into CAD software and developed a 3D model.

The final piece is a chaise lounge chair, constructed from 45 serial sections. I named it "M"—both as a nod to the Spanish word "Mujer" (woman) and because of the shape itself.


I also used this chair design for my modeling class, where I redesigned the backrest, making it slightly more curved for a sleeker look. As part of the project, I created a scaled paper model and designed a magazine advertisement—and I think it turned out great! I absolutely love the shape; it has such an elegant and sensual aesthetic.
