The Nerikomi Wood Console 01 began as a material exploration in 2018. I was interested in finding a purpose and elevating the high quality scrap plywood that cabinet shops throw away regularly. These scraps are odd sizes and generally small strips, so there was extensive experimentation to be able to effectively use these pieces and to do it in an interesting and beautiful way. I took inspiration from the Nerikomi pottery technique to create the method that we use to make the patterns. This piece is made entirely from waste wood.

The shape of the piece informed by the material. It has large flat surfaces in order to show the intricate patterns created from the scrap as well as curved surfaces that show distortions in the patterns as they were shaped and cut on a bias or curve.

This piece saved over 150 lbs from going the landfill.
