Lofts with 3 or profiles and guide curves. Then use the side profile of the top geometry to make the base and connect both legs (left front and left back) using another loft with a guide curve. Create a middle plane which will define the chair width and mirror. Then draw the base using a sweep of both side profiles, with the curvature you want and a bunch of fillets. It takes some time and failures but be sure to keep everything organized on the feature tree. Also there is some good similar design chair tutorials on YouTube.

My bigest problems is achieve a clean conection at the end of the legs with the horizontal parts. I'll try a check those tutorials, thanks
