Wooden reading stool made from four boards cut from a single plank of poplar. To emulate the manufacturing process, we traded technical drawings of our own designs, fabricating another’s design and having our design fabricated by another. As an homage to our Industrial Design program, my stool features a slot to hold a book celebrating 80 years of ID at Carnegie Mellon University.
