Brief alteration - Bar furniture

New Brief:
After further research on 100% Design Tokyo and observing my previous designs/concepts, I have made a transformation in what i want to achieve through the design of my chair. Due to my current concepts being small and stool-like, the do not succeed in fulfilling my previous brief of seminar seating.
With further research on the existance, location, use and furniture within 100% Bar, I see it as an opportunity to continue the design process I've started already. As you can see from the below image, the bar is situated within the displays and the current furniture is an array of space- consuming tables and chairs. Because people are constantly in an out of the bar between exhibits, it is only logical to have more practically sized furniture.

My design will:
- replace the existing furniture surrounding the bar
- procide a more space concious design through combining the use of table and chair in the one design.
- offer furniture that reflects the concept of a 'quick bite' or drink.
- be easily assembled from a flat pack.Analysis of the chosen space:
While looking at the locaiton map and the existing furniture within the bar, it is apparent to me that the number of seating could almost be double with the right design.
