While deep in thought about Groovystuff’s mission of recycling reclaimed Teak from Thailand and creating unique modern rustic furniture, I wanted to create a design that was not only unique but
consistent with the design style that Groovystuff is composed of.
As a result, my design focuses on how two different materials such as the Teak wood and the iron wheel rim could come together in order to create a unified whole. Considering that the teak and the iron are very different in quality, I used this contrast as a way to join them. The solid, bold form of the wood and the delicate way in which the iron can me formed allowed me to produce a dynamic joint that forms a transition from one material to the other that embraces the natural qualities of each material. This unique joint allows both the teak and the iron to keep their individual properties as well as clasp one and other in a harmonious embrace.
