In the spirit of our workshop, we tried to make a social structure that was not only from leftover material, but also built in a way that allows the material to function well into the third loop of use.

In the planning phase we fell in love with the 300-year-old timber beam. We wanted to use its weathered aesthetics and solidity to support something softer and more elegant that could provide some kind of shelter.

We increasingly recognised the interesting opportunities to weave the thin planks. At first more as a backrest/cladding/facade, but our fascination led us into exploring its structural capabilities as well.
