Regarding the design;
Shape - To keep true to the research, as well as the original concept, I wanted the chair to be reminiscently shaped like the human skull. The decision to add shelving for books and other reading materials was inspired by the fact that the skull houses the brain, invoking a feeling of deep thought and intellect. This is further emphasised by the wooden section which houses a lighting fixture.
Colour - Keeping the outside of the chair white was a risky idea, for neutral colours can sometimes be rather bland and unattractive. This is why the inner chamber, as well as the desired fittings for seating, are coloured in red. Had this been an actual product, it would be interesting to have a selection of colours for the seating. This reflects upon the fact that the outer shell of the skull, which is white, can relate to the monotonous design of the skull, as most skulls hardly differentiate from one another, yet, the ability to change the seats colour can invoke deep imagination, the true colours of ones inner thoughts.
For the sake of perspectives, I decided to make last minute side sketches of the front and back view.
