Vitra Belleville Armchair Modelling Exercise in Solidworks. Advanced Surface Blending/Transitions

Modelling the Vitra Belleville Armchair by the Bouroullec Brothers.
This chair exercise has been in progress for a few years… the blends between the legs and the under seat structure are quite difficult to resolve, so I kept putting this off… in the end using overbuilt surfaces proved to be the best method forward. Please watch the video for a detailed overview of the modelling strategy.
