Learn how to design and build a stool from sheet metal without welding, using easily accessible materials and metalworking techniques
Want to create stunning design pieces from a material as raw as steel? In this online course, learn how to design and build a stool from a thin sheet of metal with your very own hands. From the initial design to the shaping of the steel, discover a playful and educational creative process that yields exquisite results.
Throughout the course, count on the know-how of Caroline Ziegler and Pierre Brichet, the designers of the Parisian Studio BrichetZiegler and your guides on this adventure. Passionate about handicrafts, DIY, and the playful quality of materials, join them to share in their love of crafts, design, and aesthetics.
Begin the course by entering the fascinating world of BrichetZiegler. The design duo tell you about their creative journey so far and their main sources of inspiration.
Dive straight into the research phase of the project. Start by exploring design materials, then walk through everything you need for the course and discuss steel specifically.
Time to get designing! Draw a sketch of your idea, make a paper mock-up, and model it in Rhinoceros 3D.
Next up, cut the shape of the object in thin sheet metal, after having first made the pattern in 2D. Then create volume and assemble the different parts before covering the seat with a sheet of leather. Now take a step back and see how your stool has come to life!
