Introducing my debut furniture series ‘Primary levers’.
This series renders the essential saw stool from its inexhaustible utility into a thing of beauty. An icon fixed between furniture and tool the almost ambiguous trestle is celebrated in a form which romanticises function in an uncomplicated design with exposed joinery of feature-full Australia hardwood.
My Father showed me how to make my first saw horse as a 16yr old one winter afternoon in New Lambton, NSW. Those compound cuts and having my own work stool basically initiated me. With a sawhorse and a truckies knot I was equipped for anything.
‘Primary levers’, focuses on furniture that advance our posture and perspective. Simple and ubiquitous forms that offer adaptation for how we occupy and interpret our built environment. My belief is that structures which prompt novel kinetic engagement facilitate the mind and senses through a healing education in creativity.
