Developing my three ideas below, I have changed and altered a few parts to each design in order for it to develop.
The chair above has now changed its legs to replace the old frame of the trolley into new wooden, triangular frames which compliment the design perfectly. The warmth from the colour of the wood really helps to make the chair a more homely piece. I was inspired by Reinier De Jong's Steel chair as it uses triangles for the legs of the chair, I wanted to adapt on this by creating a base for the triangle legs and using a new material.

In the table I have altered the feet by removing the semi-circular legs and replacing them with triangular wooden legs that are narrow but fit amongst the four corners. I wanted to use the box to its ability and felt it would improve the aesthetics of the design by allowing the legs to be visible through the frame. Surprisingly I was inspired by Kabul Design's Fink Bubble Table which played with the height of the legs. I loved this simple alteration and felt it would work nicely in my own work.

To develop the flower basket I have attached rope which allows it to be turned into a hanging feature, this basket can then be altered to different heights which starts to make it feel personal to the client. I have used a light coloured rope which is very simple and compliments well with the metallic frame. The rope is tied neatly at every corner and joins at the top forming a pyramid shape, this is very secure.
My final inspiration for this came from Josh Owens CD chandelier which is made from recycled CD cases suspended from a rope. The suspension to me looks amazing as the product expands from a thin rope into something a lot bigger, I have incorporated this concept into my work.
