Fanjie Jin– Looking Outwards – 03

This char is designed by Zaha Hadid, who is a world renowned Pulitzer Prizer English architect. This chair was fabricated using 3D printer as the geometry of the chair is rather complicated and therefore it is not really possible to be fabricated by hand. When she was designing this chair, she has used the grasshopper modeling tool which is a language that is on Rhino platform. The chair is designed completely by script and therefore if there is some parameter for example the density of the mesh on the back of the chair changed, she can choose to whether apply that change to the other places for the chair. This is a great example of how coding and design are integrated and formed a new sense of ideality.
