Brief description about myself and my background.
The exposed fasteners became a critical design decision. Using minimal bolts to hold the structure together creates a striking, honest aesthetic while serving a clear purpose. Finding the balance between simple functionality and visual impact required careful placement and material selection.
The structure rests on curved steel legs, drilled to align with the screw path. A nut secures everything from below, creating a strong connection that emphasizes the robust, structural character.
Bolts go through the plywood structure and the steel bar below. The fabric is pulled tight and stapled directly into the plywood core. This keeps the upholstery secure while the bolts hold the main structure together.

I pushed this project further for my portfolio, exploring interactive design to make it come alive. Using GSAP and ScrollTrigger, I created smooth on-scroll animations that let the viewer scrub through the video based on mouse position across different zones. The result is an engaging, dynamic way to experience the furniture design and see every detail of how it was assembled.
