Self-initiated Product Concept + Prototype
Exploring the sustainable potential of veneer for maximizing the use of high-quality timber, Ply rethinks ways in which wood veneer as a typically surface material can become a structure.
Transforming (through) functions and experiences, Ply follows patterns seen in nature. It is discovered with time as a portable companion in personal rituals of reflection and taking time for oneself.
Joining contrasting properties of a solid plywood shell with flexible veneer layers brings complex movement — adjusting to the body in rest while supporting it in connection to the enviroment.
With an easy-to-assemble frame of supports and adjustable joining elements, Ply becomes a swing or chair. To engage with the body and mind in nature, Ply becomes a shade, basket, or soft reflection stool.
Finding the depth in veneer,
and geometry in the grain.
