Discover a set of CNC furniture with a sustainable and playful design.

In 2018, Power Station of Art celebrated the 5th anniversary of the Emerging Curators Project with a special exhibition. As part of our design involvement, we created a set of CNC furniture consisting of two desks and sixteen chairs. Our choice of using plywood sheets with mortise and tenon joints allowed for easy fabrication with a CNC machine while providing a sustainable solution for the client. The final furniture pieces were produced by opendesk, a company specializing in CNC-manufactured furniture, which ensured high-quality and precise execution of the designs.
