I’ll be putting together the toy chest soon, and of course, updating you guys with pictures! This version will just be a prototype, the final piece will be cut next week! I’m excited to see it all come together! ^^

These unique pieces of urban furniture by Alexandre Moronnoz are made using metal and timber. This bench named “Muscle” resembles the tendons of muscles and his other two pieces also possess interesting shapes.

TOOLS: Metal Lamp Inspiration
The next lamp I’ll be designing in TOOLS class is a metal lamp using steel rods. It’ll be interesting since I haven’t had any experience working with welding and metals before — learning curve ahead!
Below are a few inspirational images for my lamp. I’m staying with the theme of Japanese/Chinese Gardens and looking at different weaving techniques, as well as simplicity, symmetry, and balance.
