A Look at How Bend Goods? Betty Came to Be
Bend Goods gives us a look at how one of their latest designs, the Betty Stacking Chair, was born in this month's Deconstruction.
Have you met Betty" If not, you should say hello. She’s one of the latest designs Bend Goods has dropped and she’s a keeper. Betty was designed to stack when you want extra chairs on hand but don’t necessarily have the space to keep them out all the time – she’s super practical. Plus, they gave her a chic, bohemian look with triangular details that can work on warm summer nights on the patio or at your dining table. Let’s see how Betty was born in this month’s Deconstruction.
1. It all starts with a sketch. The pencil to paper realization of a thought or a dream. These are the very first sketches that started the whole process and gave life to what we know today as the Bend Goods Betty Stacking Chair. You will quickly see how the page came to life when we took these sketches to the metal shop.
2. Our thought originally was to keep Betty’s shape and her lines more simple and streamlined. As you can tell here, we gave her a lower back than we have in the past with our Lucy and Ethel Side Chairs. In turn, we decided to add some width to her seat. We were hoping to make Betty comfortable but more compact at the same time.
3. As you can tell from the first few images, the original version of Betty was not stackable. We initially tried to make all four of her legs parallel to each other....
