Wojtek Tomaszewski – Profil

Profil
furniture collection
Profil furniture collection is a result of a year long research project about sustainability which I conducted during my studies at Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw.
I was investigating different methods of moulding plywood and developing new kind of structural components for the furniture industry that could replace solid wood in various applications. I modified forming process by laying down veneer leafs parallel to their wood grains. With this method I achieved rigid profiles capable of holding heavy loads. Three different furniture pieces present sturdiness of plywood profiles and introduce new formal language to the furniture industry.
Profil was selected for Diploma Selection exhibition during Designblok Prague 2014.
