About the project

A steamer chair is all slats and pivots. Each slat sits at a slightly different angle along the curve of the seat, and the footrest has to sit believably on its own legs. The model was originally the heaviest of the set at 16 MB.

After optimization the web file is 0.32 MB, about 98% smaller, and loads instantly in the viewer. The brass hardware is kept as a separate material so it can switch to steel or black for other colorways.
