As first I and my teammate started with own sketches to explore different type of seats and forms we wanted to create. Then coming the locking types that could be achieved. Triangle form was possibly the best option we went for.
Along the way of process development, we moved on with some 1:4 scale mock-ups and experiments on how forming shapes can be locked into.
Learning from different trials, the locking system was achieved by 2 opposite piece being locked to each other. Apparently once locked it all formed a spiral shape on the top and the bottom side was secure by slotting another long piece of cardboard in between every slice. The great part of this stool was also the pattern that helps to soften the look. Following is our result of the stool we made:
