The motivation for this project stems from a fascination with the miter joint. We aim to elevate this technique by combining it with the kerfing technique and modern CNC production methods. In doing so, we hope to create new forms that are scalable.
The dune bowl is composed of single-curved surfaces, as required by the initial criteria. The shape arises from these constraints, resulting in a balanced design which feels logical to us. The product is, first and foremost, a standalone object that enriches its space. Additionally, it is functional and can be used as a bowl for various purposes, such as a fruit bowl, storage tray, and more.
The name ‘Dune Bowl’ comes from its resemblance to a sand dune. When light hits the soft curved surfaces of the bowl it creates a nice gradient. In combination with the sharp ridge where the two surfaces meet, just like a sand dune.
