Voronoi Tessellation Chair

Voronoi Tessellation Chair The chair is comprised of an accumulation of three dimensional Voronoi tessellation cells, a pattern that originates from a point cloud varying in density according to stress points on the chair by the user’s body.   The chairs ability to be rotated establishes several seating positions the user can take and allows for multiple chairs to connect together in differing ways.  Groups of chairs allow for interaction and formation of social hierarchies that each user can adjust through the rotation of their chair in relation to others.  Research Project Mentor: David Newton Research Funding: UofM/CDES Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program.
