The A-Frames are an exploration into geometry, color and display in the form of functional wall objects. The shelves are inspired by a Danish folk design from the island of Amager, near Copenhagen, and are hand-cut with traditional woodworking saws. Assembled using simple wooden lap joints and no glue, shapes include variations on triangles, parallelograms, and other forms. Painted and stained basswood, 2012-ongoing. Sold through our design studio, CHIAOZZA.
