BOX PROJECT
Fall 2011
​
Maple
Sapele Mahogany
​
This box was designed as part of an introduction to woodworking class. Through the design and construction of this project, I learned many joinery techniques and methods of woodworking.
​
I chose to use contrasting wood types of Maple and Sapele Mahogany to create a play between light and dark. The reveals formed by the overlay of interlocking forms made of these two materials give a nice depth to the piece. The form of the box allows it to rest upon its lid while open.
​
The box was designed to hold keepsakes and cards from friends and loved ones.
