Description
Interlocking Characters Studios started by using historical newspapers to inspire the residents towards weaving for a purpose and developed into taking those specific textual characteristics combined with the action of weaving and looking at it in a whole new light. This studio is meant to push how these residents think of weaving, and interlocking will become the most significant part of how this space analyzes the craft. The studio is meant to be just as experiential as functional, so the residents are pushed to provide the interiority of their residency by weaving, which is what they are also there to do.
01: Process
These were very early paper modeling and sketching demonstrations that were used to inform the end design of the AnyWear Wardrobe. Paper Folding and Weaving techniques were studied to make these intriguing forms and furniture designs.
02: Drawings
03: Project Statement
The AnyWearWardrobe became a statement piece that can be added to any residential space. . From the Formica 2021 swatches, the Camel Elm from the woodgrain laminates was perfect when deciding how to combat the leisure form with more comfort. The burgundy laminate was chosen to instill confidence, which was perfect when considering the rack’s primary purpose of getting ready. The furniture has two varying heights, with space for the commodities on the shelf in the middle and the storage on the bottom. This is all designed for any person’s use, not just one specific type. The AnyWear Wardrobe is a must-add feature to any home in the next generation, including apartments, lofts, houses, and more.
