This project follows three guidelines:
Intimate knowledge of resources.
Self-correcting structures with feedback
Trusting one’s ideas.
On a deeper level I see Bricolage as it represents my life and career. I am able to apply my unique perspective and background knowledge as an art director and crafter to any project.
Bricolage is french translation for DIY. Greater than the definition, bricolage is about integrating a variety of knowledge from different aspects of your life in order to create unique and innovative work.
I titled this project Bricolage because in its final form this piece addresses a problem with an artful design and well-crafted solution. It’s purpose was to perform as a multi-functional piece of furniture to serve as a coffee table as well as provide seating for guests living in tight spaces similar to your NYC shoebox.
