FURNITURE PROJECT PROPOSAL A piece of my design work
RESUME
Philosophy Good design is as little design as possible. The more ‘essential’ you can make a product that is, the less designed you can make it appear the more you’ve succeeded.

MY DESIGN WORK
SKETCH IDEATION
Kuih Tako is a type of cake traditionally hearty and tasty. The breadcrumbs are a sweet but not durable cake .Lightly flour is basically made from coconut milk and rice flour and cooked in a container made from banana leaves. The middle is filled with sugar water which makes it sweet. It's easily damaged and doesn't last long.
The Tako rock-chair is one of the type of rocking chair with two curved bands (known as rockers),which contact the floor at only two points, giving the occupant the ability to rock back and forward. This chair design is very comfortable for every age and everybody should have it at home.
This rocking chair is good for the new parents too. They can have some much needed rest while enjoying with their child. Many people find rocking chairs soothing because of the gentle motion.
The foam and shape of Tako rock-chair is inspired from the shape of leaf of “Kuih Tako� and combine with the concept of Japanese designs.

DESIGN CONCEPT
ENVIROMENT RENDERING ( Tako rock-chair ) The foam and shape of Tako rock-chair is inspired from the shape of leaf of “Kuih Tako” and combine with the concept of Japanese designs. A concept statement, images of various views and rendering of my custom Tako rock-chair design.
In Japan floor chairs have been used for a long time. The Japanese call these chairs “Zaisu", and they are often seen in combination with other Japanese furniture such as futons, tatami floors or " Kotatus" tables. In Japan it is very common to sit on the ground with the entire family. Because of this the tables they sit and eat on are also often lower than in western countries.
So the foam and shape of Tako half-floor chair is inspired from the shape of leaf of “kuih tako” and combine with the concept of floor chair in Japanese.
Tako half-floor chair is similar to a normal chair, only the lower legs. Yes, we are talking about a legless chair. This means that the seating part of the chair on which you sit is in direct contact with the half of the floor. It provides the back support of a high chair.
