Gillon Lounge Chair – Professional 3D Manufacturing CAD Files (Digital Download)
⚠️ IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ BEFORE BUYING
This listing is for digital 3D CAD files only. You are purchasing the manufacturing drawings and 3D data to build this chair yourself. No physical chair will be shipped to you.
Overview
Unlock the geometry of high-end furniture design. The Gillon Lounge Chair package provides you with professional-grade, solid 3D CAD data, giving you the exact blueprint needed to manufacture this stunning Mid-Century Modern (MCM) inspired piece.
Whether you are a master woodworker, a furniture brand looking to expand your catalog, or a design student studying complex joinery, these files bridge the gap between a concept and a finished masterpiece.
Why Buy These CAD Files?
1. Skip the R&D Phase Developing a chair with these organic curves and balanced proportions takes hundreds of hours of prototyping. We have done the hard work for you. By downloading this asset, you are buying a "manufacturing-ready" design that allows you to go straight to the workshop or CNC machine.
2. Perfect for Your Business or Side Hustle Are you a maker looking for a high-ticket item to sell?
-
For Professional Workshops: Use these files to program 3-axis or 5-axis CNC machines for consistent production.
-
For Side Hustles: Create a boutique offering without the need for an in-house designer.
-
For Customization: Use the Rhino files as a base foundation. Modify the armrests, change the recline angle, or adjust the joinery to create a derivative design that is uniquely yours.
3. A Masterclass in MCM Design The Gillon Chair features the hallmarks of classic Danish Modern design: sculpted "floating" armrests, a solid wood architectural frame, and a relaxed, deep-seat profile. Owning the 3D model allows you to inspect every curve and intersection to understand how high-end furniture is constructed.
Technical Specifications
This is not a hollow surface mesh used for video games. This is a full solid manufacturing 3D drawing. The geometry is watertight and precise, ready for dimensioning, tooling, and rendering.

.STP(STEP file) – The industry standard. Compatible with SolidWorks, Fusion 360, Inventor, CATIA, and almost all other CAD/CAM software. -
File Format 2:
Rhino 8(.3dm) – Native editable file for users of Rhinoceros 3D. -
Geometry Type: NURBS / Solid Body (High precision).
-
Units: [Insert Units, e.g., Millimeters/Inches].
What You Can Do With These Files
-
✅ Generate 2D Plans: Slice the model to create printable templates for band saws and shapers.
-
✅ CNC Machining: Export geometry directly to your CAM software for automated cutting.
-
✅ Photorealistic Rendering: Use the model to create marketing materials or visualize different fabric/wood combinations before building.
-
✅ Modify & Iterate: Use it as a starting point for your own custom furniture line.
The Design Aesthetic
The Gillon Lounge Chair strikes a balance between structural integrity and visual lightness. It features:
-
Sculpted Joinery: Smooth transitions where legs meet the seat rail.

Hi, I’m Morten Skipper
I’ve spent over 30 years designing and building high-end furniture for clients around the world — from custom heirlooms to contemporary showpieces. In that time, I’ve mastered both traditional and modern furniture and decor techniques, and trained countless apprentices in the craft's. I created these designs and all the course on this website to give you the same step-by-step skills I use in my workshop — so you can confidently aquire the skills you want. Whether you’re restoring a family treasure or creating something brand new. I hope you enjoy Craft'n Build as much as I’ve enjoyed creating it for you.
Let’s get started.
What our customers say
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Clean geometry, imported perfectly. "I run a small joinery shop and needed a mid-century piece to add to our catalog. I bought this to test on our 3-axis CNC. The STP file imported into Fusion 360 without a single error—no broken surfaces or naked edges. The geometry is solid and watertight, which made generating toolpaths incredibly easy. Saved me about 40 hours of modeling time." Custom Furniture Maker
Dereck S
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for making router templates. "To be clear for anyone reading: this is a digital file, not a chair! I bought this to build the chair manually. I used the 3D model to slice cross-sections and print out full-scale paper templates for my bandsaw and shaper. The design itself is beautiful, and having the 3D model let me inspect the joinery angles before I cut any expensive walnut. A steal at this price." Hobbyist Woodworker
Jack F
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ High-quality NURBS surfaces. "Rare to find downloadable furniture assets that aren't just messy polygon meshes. This is actual manufacturable CAD. I use Rhino 8, and the included .3dm file was native and organized. I modified the armrest width slightly to fit a custom client request, and the topology was easy to edit. Will be buying more designs from here." , Interior Designer
Andrew P
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Paid for itself immediately. "I’m a decent builder but a slow modeler. I wanted to build a Gillon-style chair for a client but didn't have the time to draw it up from scratch. Downloading this file gave me immediate access to professional dimensions and curves. It’s a serious professional asset, not just a pretty picture." — Construct Design Studio
Collins M
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible learning resource. "I'm studying furniture design and bought this just to see how a professional chair is put together. Dissecting the file and seeing how the surfaces blend at the joints was a masterclass in itself. If you want to learn how to model organic furniture, this is the best $ you can spend."
Harris K
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Exactly what I needed for my project. "Excellent 3D data. I used the STP file in SolidWorks to plan out a build for my home office. Just a heads up to others: you are buying the plans (the digital 3D model), not the furniture! But if you have the skills to build it, the detailing on this drawing is top-tier."
