1st Place

Fluid Rocker by Nick Trincia

My entry for the RELAX Pattern Competition is one of the most relaxing of all pieces of furniture, a rocking chair. The Fluid Rocker's soft curves and ergonomic class make it every bit inviting to wait at as it is to sit in. The chair's flowing organic shape is achieved through a ane piece fiber glass construction with a high-gloss finish. For added comfort and texture, a layer of soft natural felt wraps over the entire outer face of the chair. On the upper side of the chair, the felt provides added cushion for sitting, while on the underside of the chair information technology provides for quieter, softer rocking, and protection for your floors.

1st Runner Up

Solomon past Jeff Lawber

The chair is what I like to think of as a hybrid between a bean purse chair and a park bench, offer the custom fit of ane and the pleasant atmosphere of the other. The thought is that the chair compresses when you sit down on information technology to give a level of custom comfort as well every bit a leap-like bounciness.

Honorable Mention

Hive Chair by Marcos Torres

Hive was designed because I wanted to create a chair that had a suspended seat area that was not rigid. The hexagonal pattern is made from an elastomer that allows the seat to have some give when the user sits down. The challenge was to be able to create a blueprint that was parametric so that I could make changes to the pattern on the wing. To achieve this flexibility I used grasshopper. Grasshopper allowed me to create a chair that had endless possibilities. The upshot is Hive, a fun and progressive design that is sure to make people stop and stare.

To Rocking Chair by Zheng Ruixing

Relax – A term to describe idyllic surroundings, loosening of muscles and just immersing in full happiness. To me, it is to exist able to sit down down at the end of the twenty-four hour period and rocking away all the hectic lifestyle that I am exposed to in the mornings. Hence, the design of my piece of furniture is largely based on a fantastic Japanese character. An private feels at ease and at the same time, comfortable as it is of ergonomic structure and it does not feel out of place when placed with any other furniture because of its minimalistic outlook. An ideal hangout for a cozy afternoon read (as the bottom stand is able to store items similar books), a balcony decorative piece to enjoy nature with or but reminiscing the days of sitting on Gramps' lap while he sits on his traditional rocking chair.

In short, "と" is the style of life where "と" means a good friend who is supporting and walking WITH you through the days of your lives.

(とis pronounced every bit "to" and is translated to "with" in English)
