Reimagining iconic lounge chair by Mr. Gajanan Upadhyay

The intent was to study the lounge chair by GU and re imagine it with a new perspective. The assignment started with keeping the frame constant and working with the seat and back and then eventually redeveloping the frame as well to come to a holistic design.I imagined the context to be a lounge area for a corporate office for my chair. Keeping the chair as a constant, I designed a system of furniture  around it.This includes a mid rise and a high rise stool along with a coffee table and high rise dining table.
