We collaborated with We Make Extraordinary Objects on a commission for Andrée Cook.

We worked closely with WMEO to source the single piece oak blocks and carve to the exact specification, The forms were a combination of angled tapers with a complex concave scallop, the curve was cut freehand using a circular saw.  After research and prototyping we sandblasted, stained, oiled and waxed the oak.

“WMEO celebrates the combination of mechanized processes, industrial materials and techniques in the pieces combined with a high level of artisanal hand skill, that come together in their philosophy and their furniture.” - Andrée Cook
