The Malaysian government is actively searching for a distinct chair design identity to call its own, and the solution might just lie in the natural world around them. Taking inspiration from the awe-inspiring Rafflesia flower, this book aims to establish a robust theoretical framework called T-BTF that will help Malaysian chair designers infuse the country's unique identity into their creations. By utilizing T-BTF principles, the 3-dimensional chair model combines science, engineering, and design to create a transformative approach that could revolutionize the furniture industry. Biomimicry's impact on chair design extends far beyond the present day, laying the foundation for future furniture that's truly one-of-a-kind.
