Chairs are an item of furniture that upholsterers work with frequently, but overall chairs haven’t changed much in thousands of years!
To prepare for your future career as an upholsterer, create a chair of the future! Invent a super cool chair that is completely different from anything that exists today. A chair that comes when you call? A chair with tentacles instead of ‘legs’? You decide!
Sketch out your chair of the future design, then share a picture of it in the Student Showcase to build your resume and show people the future of furniture!
