STAGE FOUR: Major project

Produce a 1:1 furniture prototype in Xanita x-board ‘kraft’ that can hold 150 kilograms and can be produced in batches of 50 – 1000 units using a CNC cutting and scoring process.

Considering brand, you will need to research and identify a means of creating corporate identity for your furniture piece, either through a cutting or printing process.

The final prototype design will demonstrate assembly and disassembly for end of life (recycling).
