ELIZABETH DESK
ELIZABETH DESK
2008

I had been commissioned by a friend of an artist friend to create a desk with the only condition being the requirement of two large built-in file drawers. While working on the balsawood model for the client to review, I scored the area indicating the placement of the drawers, and a piece of the balsa fell out. I liked that detail so much that I encorporated it into the design. The curls at the bottom were another place where the design was enhanced by taking away.
