How to draw a chair step by step

Step 1

Start by constructing the frame. Draw a transparent cube with light, thin lines to define the main boundaries and proportions of the chair.

^.

^.

Step 2

Show the internal, invisible edges of the cube to better understand the volume.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

^.

^.

Step 3

Add a vertical rectangle to the top back edge of the cube — this will be the base for the chair’s backrest.

^.

^.

Step 4

Mark the seat by drawing two lines inside the top face of the cube, parallel to its edges, slightly lowering them to add thickness.

^.

^.

Step 5

Move on to the legs. Draw the two front legs with vertical lines from the corners of the seat down to the floor.

^.

^.

Step 6

Draw the two back legs, smoothly transitioning into the vertical supports of the backrest.

^.

^.

Step 7

Add a horizontal support bar on the backrest by drawing two parallel lines between the vertical supports.

^.

^.

Step 8

Give the backrest a soft shape by outlining the support with smooth, convex lines, showing that it is a padded cushion.

^.

^.

Step 9

Similarly shape the seat, rounding the corners and adding a slight bulge for volume.

^.

^.

Step 10

Smooth sharp corners on the back legs, giving them a rounded shape.

Congratulations!

Carefully remove all construction lines and add shadows and highlights to make the chair look realistic. The drawing is ready!
