Osso chair - Ronan Erwan

This is one of my all time favourite chairs. It combines great thinking with brilliant technology.

Using standard joinery methods and fusing them with the actual components, makes one less part that makes the whole product. That reduces the overall complexity of the construction and fast tracks the assembly period.

 I will let the photos do it justice!












Rise Shelving - Ashley Allen

Shelving with a twist, made from bamboo ply. Constructed with many layers of ply which have been molded with the assistance of a form. And both shelves are connected via a metal plate.




This shelving over Ikea shelving any day!

Flat Pack stools - Adam Lynch

Adam has created these flat-pack stools that are simple and quick to assemble. Which are visually great on the eyes and made from Bamboo ply. The components are cut out using a CNC (Computer Numeric Control) using this method of productions reduces waste and increases efficiency.

The hard part is programming the CNC to do what you want it to do. Once you have that down then its clean sailing from that point. Usually a MDF mock-up model is made up first to test joinery and proportions then the final is produced with a better material.
