ARC - Flat Pack Kid's Chair

ARC - Kid's Reading Chair
ARC is an alternative to conventional children's furniture, replacing cheap plastics with responsibly sourced materials. It features integrated storage and a simple, tool-less assembly process.

As per the design brief, ARC is designed to be manufactured from a single piece of 12mm Plywood using just one CNC routing operation.

Living hinges, slots, and Stiplox(TM) connectors create durable and reversible joints. Arc can be easily assemble or dissembled in 5-10 minutes.


CUTTING PLAN
Nesting of multiple chairs allows for higher efficiency manufacturing.
