Animals in Products

 
























Before jumping into the animal research i wanted to look at how other products have animal features in them and get a idea of how subtle or obvious I can be with the idea. Looking at some of these products I can see either obvious or sublte animal features in them and this will be a good way to gauge how my own designs are going.

Elmar Flototto designed the animal chairs (top right corner). The chairs use the colours i would liek to use in my own design and are great for kids to knock over sit on and play with. Obviously i am not wanting my chair to be like this but I feel Flototto has used basic shapes really well to represent the animals. The chairs are made of POLY-ETHERFOAM as well as PU varnished.

The animal chairs series (bottom right) is designed and made by Elad Ozeri. These chairs much like Flotottos use colour and shape welll to show the features of the animals in the product but Elmar uses the drunk and neck of the giraffe as back support, incorparating it into the chair. The chair is made of ACRYLIC and is cut then bent using heat.

Now on to Pictures of animals, captain obvious.
