cassius nagle-thomas

Constructed from durable and versatile materials, the chair is ideal for a classroom setting as it promotes sustainability while incorporating ergonomics and classroom aesthetic. By using sustainable processes in the manufacturing process, this chair aims to encourage environmental consideration in young people and schools while also being cost effective as classrooms require around 20 identical chairs. The materials are also reasonably lightweight to allow for easy transport and movement in the classroom. The chair uses ideal dimensions and shape for ergonomics suitable for a teenager, which is a necessity when end users will be sitting for hours at a time. The simplistic design is consistent with the average classroom as it minimises distraction to encourage learning.
