Title: Segment Rotation Seat
By: tghotseatga
Description: Segment Rotation Seat is a dynamic, expandable and contractible, sitting experience. A seat surface is created by joining multiple wood segments (four-segment option presented in images), then rotating segments for desired comfort and aesthetic appeal. A person can sit forwards, backwards, or sideways; rest on their stomach or back, or rotate wood segments to positions that provide arm rests, back rests, or leg rests. Wood segment scale and contour form was determined through ergonomic study and conforms nicely to human proportions.

Each wood segment is a fluid spatial volume consisting of five plywood layers and a ratcheting system that allows a rotating core to lock-in at 10 different positions. A plywood coupler engages adjacent segment cores and properly spaces segments, while a threaded rod mechanically fastens the entire assembly.

Change and growth are significant features of Segment Rotation Seat. Multiple wood segments could be combined to create a seating organism tens of feet long and provide uniquely adjustable individual resting places for large groups of people.
