Wavy Stool

This piece
represents a continuation of my investigation and fascination of soft
curves in wood. By rolling all edges the presence of a wooden form
changes dramatically. The rolled edges aesthetically transform the
hardwood into a ‘soft’ and welcoming design that may be counterintuitive
to the typical materiality seen in objects of hardwood. All lines
‘wave’ into the next providing a continuous flow throughout the stools
design. Attention in purposely drawn to the joinery through the
exaggeration of the parts interfacing.
