This cabinet draws on the craft tradition of coopering, where timber is bent and laminated to make a compound curved form. The deconstructed barrel represents the hard outer shell of a seed pod. Within this pod, the silver ash cabinet holds a precious object. The gentle spill of light around the cabinet alludes to the potential of new life; its slender dynamic legs show its precariousness.

Steam bent and laminated silky oak, silver ash, stainless steel, glass, LED lighting system, mechanical fasteners.
