Art Deco Verandah Chair

lundi 10 novembre 2014

Hmmmm, Art Deco is not everyone's cup of tea, but I'm very fond of it. The design of this one is a cross between one from the TAFE course and my own ideas. They have the sloping leg going right back but it takes up too much real estate that way, apart from being an excellent trip hazard (although it does look good like that).

















This is a gift for a new neighbour across the road. She let me have her old fence that she replaced. The vertical pieces are from the fence, 4x2 Bowling Club Douglas Fir for the structure, and Cypress Pine flooring (from the BC) for the seat and lumbar.



I'll make another one of these (maybe for the new owner of the Bowling Club as a thanks for the timber), but I'll change some of the design:


  • Tapered front legs ( a bit chunky as they are)

  • a nice large radius curve on the top back corner of the sloping leg

  • Band Saw shaped arm rests (a bit chunky)

  • Maybe a decorative idea in the front support
