Nothing New
​Fall 23

In this project we will make recycled furniture that includes a woven seat. The patterns woven into the seat will express mathematically what students have learned about the impacts of human production and activity on the Earth. 
Syllabus
Engagement Grading

Picture
First, students will make a 1/4 scale model of their chair design and weave a seat using mason's line. 
Picture
Second, they will double the size of their models to be 1/2. This will make issues more obvious and require more technique.
Picture
Last the designs will get constructed at full scale. The pattern that is woven into the seat will represent the student's research into their chosen topic.
