Maria

jjohnsen — Sat, 19 Apr 2008 06:50:50 GMT

This project is about the celebration of the materials and manufacturing method at hand. Maria is a unique ring that combines two different materials that play well together. In design, as in life, relationships are important. With that, a focus was given to connecting the materials in a pure way without the need of any outside influence. The acrylic piece flexes enough to be press fit into the plywood then return to its cut shape to hold the wooden ornament in place. Once complete, the acrylic is reminiscent of brilliant gemstones peeking through the wooden centerpiece. NOTE: If you would like a particular color of Acrylic, please let me know.

This project is about the celebration of the materials and manufacturing method at hand. Cecilia is a unique pendant that combines two different materials that play well together. In design, as in life, relationships are important. With that, a focus was given to connecting the materials in a pure way without the need of any outside influence. The acrylic pieces are cut just enough to be press fit into the MDF. The acrylic is reminiscent of brilliant gemstones while also providing a place to lace through a necklace. Once complete, Cecilia adds a sophisticated touch to compliment the most elegant necklines. A light stain is applied to the wooden piece to bring out the grain in the veneer. A natural hemp fiber is used as the necklace to compliment the natural aesthetic of the wooden piece. The acrylic eye is reversible to give the wearer options on how to exhibit the pendant.
