MG1 Accent Chair Design and manufacture my own accent chair to extend the Whitemeadow range. With creative freedom to design and develop to my own style, I created the MG1. From the original sketch to the Solidworks frame drawing, then to upholstery methods and selection of the fabrics. Making it a stand out accent chair, the outside back is upholstered in a patterned geometric fabric.
Fa b r i c Re n d e r i n g
Contrast piping detail running below the seat and around the back cushion adds interest to the upholstery of the chair.
