Form Inspiration
To mirror the multi-functionality of my table, I wanted to incorporate contrasting shapes that give the table visual interest. I studied Bauhaus design and the art of Wassily Kandinsky for form inspiration
I mainly researched tables that had an organic, rounded shape with multiple stacked surfaces
Assembly
Final Drawing and Rendering
3 weeks - Fall 2025
A project devoted to learning the basics of furniture building. Spent 3 weeks designing and building a multi-tiered swivel table.
Skills Used - Basic joinery, Fusion 360, Sketching, Woodworking
Used Fusion 360 to create a 1:1 and 1:4 scale drawing of my table for reference. Created a perspective rendering of the table on fusion
After feedback from instructors and peers, I ended up with these 3 final concepts. All of them incorporate negative space and contrasting shapes, and I felt the one on the right was the most effective
