Shelving Unit 2


I don't know why I can't rotate this image, but it is my progress thus far on the shelving unit. Instead of all straight edges, I decided to bend the signs upwards to support the books that I place there. It's looking pretty good!

Part of the fun of fabricating my own designs is that I can change it mid-production and make improvements. As I started working with the signs, I realized that the objects on the shelf (books for example) would have trouble staying on the shelf if there was no support system that rose above the book platform. Then I thought of two beautiful curves holding up the books on either end. It all came together-- the signs are rather easy to bend.

More to come.
