GUNNAR

GUNNAR an alterable dining chair

Gunnar is a dining chair made with the purpose to be altered. With a wooden frame and a fabric that is wrapped around you can easily change the appearance. 

This thesis started with an idea to design a furniture piece that can change with us. I saw a tendency were people prioritize and follow trends instead of analyzing what they need. 

A dining chair is a furniture piece the majority of people have in their home and which is often used and therefore easily worn out. Instead of constantly buying new, I wanted to design a chair which you can alter to what your needs require. 

The chair is made out of a wooden frame where you wrap a fabric around it to be able to sit in it. The fabric is fastened behind the backrest and under the seat with a belt function. 

The fabric comes in two different options, a white one and a patterned one, which I have designed myself. The idea is to have more options for the fabric in the future. 

With the Gunnar chair you can have many chairs in one.
