I designed and constructed this chair in 10 weeks during the spring quarter of 2009 in my industrial design studio at the University of Cincinnati. I did everything from sketching the form to bending the wood.
It took me a long time but I think I finally figured out how to use the studio lights well. I was really happy with how these pictures turned out.

“2012 Mercedes-Benz Concept Style Coupe”
“The almost production-standard Concept Style Coupé sets a new benchmark for avantgarde design in the executive segment”, emphasised Gorden Wagener, Head of Design at Mercedes-Benz. “Its breathtaking proportions, sinewy fluid surfaces and sculptural lines are the physical expression of our dynamic design idiom.”

Tadao Ando (安藤 忠雄 Andō Tadao, born September 13, 1941, in Minato-ku, Osaka, Japan and raised in Asahi-ku in the city) is a Japanese architect. He visited buildings designed by renowned architects like Le Corbusier, Ludwig Mies Van der Rohe, Frank Lloyd Wright and Louis Kahn before returning to Osaka in 1968 and established his own design studio, Tadao Ando Architect and Associates. He works primarily in exposed cast-in-place concrete and is renowned for an exemplary craftsmanship which invokes a Japanese sense of materiality, junction and spatial narrative through the pared aesthetics of international modernism.
