Alex Hamilton, Tulip Table (Studio Furniture 2018)

I am a second year apprentice working for Anton Gerner Furniture in Melbourne, Australia. I strive to design furniture that is unique in style whilst still remaining practical and marketable. My entry to this competition will be a table I have designed called the Tulip Table. In the photos I have submitted you will see a prototype I made, however if shortlisted, the piece I will submit to you will have more detailed features and be made of blackwood and Huon pine sourced by Hydrowood from Lake Pieman in Tasmania. With this design I have married elements of the natural world with contemporary furniture whilst creating a piece that is both functional and saleable.
