Tracy Rocking Chair

Industrial Design
The starting point of this project is based on a local development approach, the rediscovery of know-how related to wood working. At atime when it calls into question the way we consume products, which is nowfacing new environmental requirements. It seems necessary to rediscover oldest solutions to build the tomorrow’s methods and re-think our whole system of production and consumption. This is about « rethinking local economy »for the post-green society. Here Iam interested in furniture, in order to rewrite the image of the« robust » furniture of our grand parents, their stuff have become transgenerational, and a guarentee of sustainability. 
 
Tracy consists of a steel base, recovered from an old tractor and a pinewoodstructure. Tracy was entirely think « local », since the source ofwood, sitting, manufacture and has been completly conceived in the heart of France.Each element is not than one hours drive from the assembly area. Tracy, a social object. The rocking chair conveys an idea of comfort, counrtyside, a moment passed quietly. It is for this reason that Tracy was designed this way, itinspires confidence. This chair is an example of what could be the future offurniture, and how we will « consume » the objects with highdurability.
