A stool crafted from larch wood as a study of material properties and organic form.
The design emulates the dynamic shapes of tree branches, highlighting the larch's strength, durability, and distinctive grain. The legs were shaped using a turning process, while precision joinery in the seat was achieved with CNC machining, ensuring secure, adhesive-free assembly. The result is a seamless structure that balances natural aesthetics with functional integrity.
