The design of the "Rabbit" armchair is inspired by the charming features of rabbits, capturing their natural lines and movements. It includes the distinctive character of the rabbit itself, especially the shape of its ears, tiny tail, muscular look of its back legs, and the colour itself. The design prioritizes a pleasant and user-friendly seated experience, in addition to its aesthetic value. The chair is designed to be aesthetically pleasing and harmonic, making it an ideal fit for a personalised bungalow bedroom. The primary components for the armchair's construction were metal and wood to guarantee a strong frame and enough back support for the person sitting in it. Incorporating these materials into the design strikes a good mix between strength and durability. With its charming and quirky design, the rabbit-inspired armchairoffers more than just practical seating; it's a work of art that combines form and function in a unique way. This study delves into the design, materials, and cultural significance of the chair to uncover its intriguing backstory and how it brings the charming rabbit character into daily life.
