Cappellini Wicker S Chair Free 3D model

In 1989, Cappellini first introduced his S-Chair, now in the permanent collection of Museum of Modern art in New York. This model is a fully-modeled "wicker" reproduction of his famous, stylish chair, and was created by me entirely in 3dsmax 2012. The chair comes fully textured, with it's own high resolution color, reflection/specular, and bump maps; suitable for close-up rendering, but you are also free to apply your own procedural texture if you desire. The circular "base" for these chairs is usually contructed of light guage metal framing, so I didn't provide texture maps for that part of the object, however I did supply the UV coordinates template so that you can paint your own scratches, smudges, or reflection maps for your own detailed metal material, if you desire.

I have provided a color and bump map for the weave, border, support stuts, and wraps, which are high enough resolution, and tileable, and should work well in just about any render engine with minor tweaks to the bump strength, depending on how your render engine handles bump maps.

The .max 2012 scene file also comes complete with a simple background plane, and basic three-point lighting setup for the scanline engine, but you can easily customize the materials and lighting to suit your preferred render engine, and merge the grouped chair into any scene. The scene file is modeled n decimal inches (so you know what to use for scene scale conversion when you merge the grouped object). As always, if you do resize the chair to fit your scene, always use X-form modifier, don't simply rescale using the scale tool. This is common procedure in 3dsmax for any grouped object, not just this one.

You are free to use or modify these objects as you see fit, for use in your scenes as architectural props, home decor, or any other type of scene where you may need a quality chair. This model is free to use for both commercial and non commercial renders. You may not, however, resell these objects, or any derivative of these objects, individually or as part of a package/set.
