3. Chairish Concepts
4.4. Prototype
Based on the literature studies, the prototype was made using the wooden plank, and the design was cut with the use of the CNC machine. Many alterations were done in the design of the device at the time of prototyping. The device can be used in many ways, even by normal people. The device is equipped with a table which can be used to have food or to study or to write or to use a laptop. The swing at the foot can be used for stress relief. A wheelchair has been referred for the dimension infusing the literature studies of the other standard dimensions of office and home chair.
The device can be dismantled and is so easy to keep anywhere as it does not occupy much space. The device has different parts like two side walls, 1 sitting base, one backrest, one support under the sitting base, 1 table plank on armrest,1 swing with footrest and a mirror which all can be dismantled and used accordingly.
