The contrasting design techniques unite comfort and aesthetics through an innovative take on ordinary materials. The dramatic angles create distinct points of tension that visually push and pull the piece to find a center of balance. Kerf cutting a series of slits in close proximity, integrates flex into the wood backrest. This approach adds an intriguing element to the design, and creates a unique experience for each user. TECHNIQUES. Sketching / Model Making / AutoCAD / Hand Construction

East Section
CONCEPT. A remote place of retreat with supporting accommodations for visitors to relax and reflect with others. Much like the layers of the forest canopy, the spatial layout of the design designates the public and private zones. As a multi-use facility Twin Larch could welcome small conferences, team building, and also bring profit as an Airbnb for parents weekends and family reunions.
