The primary objective of this study is to examine the viability of developing a chair with a significantly reduced carbon footprint. The research explores two distinct approaches for achieving minimal material usage in the construction process: one involving a minimal amount of wood, and the other utilizing solely wooden waste. By employing the technique of steam bending, a robust, lightweight, and durable structure can be achieved. Additionally, by harnessing the binding properties of mycelium, waste wood materials can be molded together to form a solid composite. This thesis will document the design process of two chairs that employ these two methods.
