         During  the  fall  and  winter  season  many  swedes  retreat  to  their  cabins  in  the  countryside  for  walking  in  the  woods,  picking  berries,  hunGng  and  skiing.

HUNTING  THEME  

         We  have  chosen  the  theme  of  hunGng  as  this  is  widely  pracGced  in  our  country.  

           The  reindeer  is  somewhat  of  a  symbol  for  Sweden  and  hunGng  and  it  is  an  animal  that  exists  throughout  the  country.

CLIENT    

Our  client  is  a  man  or  woman  in  the  

ages  of  20  upwards.    

Someone  who  would  like  a  comfortable,    classy  and  versaGle  chair  in  which  he  or  she    

can  enjoy  a  book  or  use  in  the  office  space.    

It’s  even  perfect  in  front  of  the  fire  place  when  

the  dark  cold  Swedish    autumn  and  winter  is  upon  you.

INSPIRATION    

           We  were  inspired  to  make  a  comfortable  chair  in  the  shape  of    reindeer  antlers  which  is  true  to  the  Swedish  nature  and  tradiGon.

MATERIALS  

THROW  -­‐    Reindeer  fur    CHAIR  –  Wood  of  walnut    

Screws    Wood  glue      

Page 9: Traditional chair Julia Olofsson and Isabel Nilsson

The  seat  is  composed  of  three  main  parts:  •  The  Wooden  Frame:  wood  •  Antlers,  armrests  and  legs:  wood  •  The  Seat  and  backrest:  bent  wood  

The  frame  and  the  seat  part  are  held  together    with  blind  –  joints  and  glue    

To  reinforce  the  structure  we  have  used  screws    that  go  through  the  planks  behind  the  backrest    and  under  the  seat  into  the  bent  wood  

As  an  addiGonal  opGon  to  this  chair  we  have  included  a  reindeer  throw  that  can  be  put  on  the  seat  to  make  it  more  comfortable.
