DOUGLAS IS A RESIDENTIAL INTERIOR DESIGN AND FABRICATION PROJECT. THE CLIENT WANTED TO SIMPLIFY THEIR BOOK SHELVES, TV STANDS, AND STORAGE INTO ONE FEATURE PIECE. THE FURNITURE WAS DESIGNED AROUND THE NOTION OF A FRAME, WHICH WAS TRANSLATED INTO MITERED EDGES ALONG THE DOUBLE LAMINATED BALTIC BIRCH PLYWOOD WHICH ADDS DEPTH AND THICKNESS TO THE FURNITURE WHILE THE THIN 1/4" EDGE FRAMES THE PIECE. A HANGING DOOR TRACK IS EMBEDDED INTO THE TOP SO THAT THE DOOR CAN SLIDE ALL THE WAY ACROSS AND ALLOW EASY ACCESS TO STORAGE.
FREEING THE WALL OF CLUTTER AND ADDITIONAL SHELVING ALLOWED THE WALL TO BE FILLED WITH PLANTERS AND A FIDDLE LEAF FIG TREE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THE ABUNDANCE OF INDIRECT LIGHT.
