Cubby Shelves
Cubby Shelves
Plywood, Douglas Fir, oil paint
2009
This installation of open boxes and display boxes is such that the the negative spaces between the boxes creates more shelving for books. The interior cubbies consist of narrow strips of douglas fir following the organic, curved openings. The irregular rounded shapes of the interior contrast with the regular, rectilinear geometries of the exterior boxes, just as the irregular pattern in which the boxes are hung creates an asymmetrical balance for the entire design.
