Risom side chair

thingiverse

Originally designed by Jens Risom, who designed the first chair for Knoll, this chair known as the Risom side chair was assigned to me in a CAD class to model in Rhino. I went and took a few pictures and some measurements of one then made my model. The chair is supposed to have webbing but my skill level wasn't up to it. I think it is my learning curve not the limits of Rhino. Instructions I've made it a thing in progress but the frame is complete, I just need to tackle the webbing. I have included the source file that allows you to see each part; frame, legs, dowels and bolts and also try your hand at the webbing or some other solution! It will definitely need to be scaled down to fit on a printer as it is full size but if you have rhino you could extract the measurements and make your own wood one! I think knowing about bridge feature might be handy but I don't know much about it to be honest. If you print them you could use paper strips as webbing.
