Concept Development- on Xboard 1:3 scale
At this stage, I tried to work on the actual material of making the real prototype. It's difficult to handle the real material as I had to consider every small cut in angle cuts or straight ones.
The finished product was nearly achieved my intention. Only minor adjustments need to be made to refine the narrow seating and slotting angle.
Concept Development-1:1 scale mockup
The 1:1 scale mockup was made by a normal cardboard. I tried to maximize the seat area as making it touches all the sides of the back. The result turned out not so complete and satisfied.
Aesthetic wise, I prefer the previous mockup which has a smaller seating and more stable. The dimension was not right for this prototype, I'll need reduce the backing height, refine the locking system and overall design look.

Finalized Concept and 1:5 mockup
From the previous development, i'm working towards to make a 1:5 mock up on normal cardboard. And this is my finalized prototype on 1:5 scale. The proportion of seat is a little tall and wide. I will adjust it further to make it look slimmer and more comfortable when sitting.
The chair consists of 2 separated pieces which will be locked together as one.
The main structure of chair which formed as supported leg and the low backrest.
This piece is the seat and functions as the locking structure. This helps the back structure be held upright and sturdy.
Basically progressing from this stage, i'll be working on 1:1 scale model for the outcome of my chair.
