Pod Bedroom Cabinets

These pieces had been fermenting in my head as possible companion pieces to the Bow Front Armoire I made years before. They are veneered with curly maple with solid cherry borders and feet. With these pieces, I finally exhausted a nice supply of the curly veneer which had a curious pattern in it; there was a thread like squiggle evenly dispersed through the grain like something you might see in Japanese paper. The feet this time, are thicker (a forty degree ellipse), and tow up more to a tighter radius on the bottom curve. I hand carved the door and drawer pulls. Once again, I made a new form to make the curved doors in my vacuum press. (One day I'll have a form for every radius from ~6" to ~246" in 1/4" increments!) They took on a character as soon as I started assembling the cabinets, even without doors. Their shorter stance was almost a human width, so animated references came to mind right away.

Hmm, maybe I should be designing a line of furniture for kids?   Or, maybe just big kids.

They reside in Guelph Ontario. At time of delivery, I suggested to them that they wander around at night and switch the placements of common household objects. It was only a suggestion though.


These pictures were taken before I had a digital camera...
