Abstract
This project explores the design and production of Graphics Studio Stool and Table, specifically crafted to meet the ergonomic, functional, and aesthetic requirements of graphic artists and designers. The study highlights the critical role of well-designed studio furniture in enhancing productivity, comfort, and creativity, addressing challenges such as stability, durability, and material efficiency. Through an extensive review of existing furniture designs and ergonomic principles, the project identifies gaps in current workspace setups and proposes innovative solutions. The production process involved multiple stages, including conceptual sketching, refining design choices, computer modeling, material selection, precise cutting, welding, assembling, and finishing. The choice of materials, including wood for the seat and metal for the legs, was guided by durability, structural integrity, and aesthetic appeal. Various challenges, such as achieving accurate metalwork, ensuring seamless joints, and refining the finishing process, were effectively tackled through meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail. The final product demonstrates a balance of strength, functionality, and visual appeal, suitable for creative studio environments. This study contributes valuable insights into furniture design for artistic spaces, offering practical recommendations for future improvements, including the use of alternative materials, modular construction, and enhanced ergonomics to further optimize the functionality and adaptability of studio furniture.
