Been really busy with portfolio/next internship search so I haven't been as diligent about documenting as I'm going along, but here is a quick update.
I've been drawn to the angular framework aesthetic for the base, and have been riffing off a Lunar Lander stance on some of the concepts. I've also been spending time practicing my welding. I'm planning on die grinding and filing down the welds to create controlled filleted connection points rather than the typical tack welded look I've seen on high end modern furniture. The weld on the left was one of many practice welds for joining round rod to 10 gauge plate for load bearing.
Right weld was a practice blend, I'm going to pic up some nice flap disks since the carbide burrs that I'm using are pretty aggresive at taking off material as you can see the small dip where I ate into the 1/2" rod too much. I've settled on doing a lounge chair and ottoman configuration, with a matte black welded steel frame, and leather upholstered pillows.
