Over the semester the class was tasked with designing a chest to store items as a way to explore fabrication.

The chest I designed was created to that it was reversible to take advantage of storing multiple items.

Being inspired by all the children in my family, I kept them and their parents in mind when designing the chest. The bottom shelf is perfect for books, art supplies, or even toys. The doors allow for smaller storage items, but it does not go all the way through so nothing gets stuck. The draw slides all the way though on either side to store longer items like crayons, colored pencils, markers, or anything else. The top is the largest storage available, beside the base, for anything kids can think of, it also has a mirror to peak curiosity. There is a cushion in the top storage as well if anyone decides to use the chest as a seat.
