Banister Furniture Series
Furniture (2022)
These series formed and evolved around previously fabricated banister handrail sections.
I had started building a stool, but after getting distracted from the first design, I moved onto the second. This was when I realised the sctructure under the second would work perfectly as a backrest for the first. Bob’s your uncle – the once stool now had a backrest, so on and so on.
This is an ongoing series of experiements into reforming banister handrails into the sctructure and form of furnitures.
