INTERIOR
Living space in the urban core is shrinking as a result of rising demand and limited space. The design of tiny homes, especially interior, requires creativity. Layout and furniture choice may elevate the look and ambiance of a tiny home, creating a spacious illusion.
I enjoy browsing vintage furniture boutiques - this inspires ideas for things I could possibly make. Both on of off my computer.
I believe that economic and functionality aspects are as crucial as aesthetics. An astonishing finding was the Shou sugi ban, a traditional Japanese technique of charring planks that results in a smoky finish. At the same time reducing moisture, significantly increasing the life span of the material.
