Buddy: an adaptable shoe storage bench

In my Model Making class, I was simply instructed to “Make a Chair.” This immediately prompted the question, “What is a chair?”

Something as simple as an upturned milk crate can be used as a seat when in need of one. After brainstorming and highlighting my goals, I sketched out ideas for my design. I finalized on a bench that has ample storage, curved edges, and enough seating room.

(I would not have been able to tackle the wood work without the help of my good friend, Sean Landers)
