I liked this design in the first place but i originally thought it might be too simple of a design. through re-visiting the concept i found that although the look of the design does seem quite simple, the folds and locking system were more complex and could work to create a much stronger design solution than i could possibly achieve through concept two.
what also drew me back to concept two was the general concept of a stool. I like the idea of a cafe style stool, so the height is taller than a normal chair, but shorter than a bar stool.
also the triangle shape allows for many stools to tessellate and be stored in a corner requiring less space.
I went on to look at various sizes that would work for the seat of the stool. I had to consider comfort and support that is different from a round or square stool, as the points give less room for comfort. i experimented with three different dimensions of what the edge could be and found that having each edge at 330mm was comfortable enough for a stool.
