Rest Chair

Role: Furniture Refinement

Skills: wood working, photography, art installation

The Rest Chair is an art installation piece made for the Ford Motor Company Design Center in Evanston, Illinois. It is a wooden structure made into the shape of a musical rest, with the play-on-words “resting on a rest.”

Working with an existing design, I aided in finishing and refining the piece. In addition to completing the construction of the chair, I helped make it safe to use and ready to be installed.

These photos showcase the final stain chosen, along with the rest chair in its final resting place.
