One of our designers, Christine Rankin, is currently studying interior architecture in the graduate program at the Rhode Island School of Design. These photos show the one of her projects, a design for a seat.
[from Christine]
"While brainstorming ideas for this assignment, I experimented with casting rubber and was drawn to its weight, grip and texture. I wanted to take advantage of these properties by casting a rubber floor mat/seat that rests on a block to adjust its angle of incline. Having had little experience building anything or working with shop tools/equipment, this project was very much about the process of seeing my design through."
