Twin piers rise to create a structural frame of solid red oak that is connected by traditional mortise and tenon joints. The piers create light-effusing chimneys that crest in flourishing finials. A contrasting charred finish has been applied and playfully routed holes allow for a dappling light. An inner frame of rectilinear ribs supports a ‘skin’ of worked panels that tessellate and give form. Some are textured by CNC grooves and others individually hand gouged. They cascade off the piers at the front and back mediating any possible inhabitation. The entire piece permeates and diffuses interstitial light when not illuminated.
