The rules of this table? One sheet of plywood measuring 2400mm by 1200mm is cut into a set of unique shapes symmetrical along a central axis, and every single piece can be used to assemble a table. All you are left with is a bag of saw dust which is unescapable from the process. Saw dust is inevitable, but it is not waste. The consumer is obliged to take the entire sheet with them and therefore the consumer takes the sawdust which they can use as garden mulch, cat litter, etc.
This process is clever and quick. It gives access to designers who cannot afford typical methods of mass production while also making craftsmen/women out of those of us who have never picked up a hammer before. However this process avoids the necessary question for our resource scarce time; what is the logic, and by its extension what is the material logic of the sheet material that passes through it?
1. Waste nothing: The entire 2400×1200 sheet that is cut will be used in the table.
2. Single cuts only: Time of production is halved.
