Mid-Century Bamboo Chair and Scrap Wood Bench


I was asked to build a version of a mid-century low chair. To put my own stamp on it, I used Plyboo Bamboo and hand-drew the curves.  This will be finished with quilted canvas cushions, so I'll have to send an update when the piece is finished. 
The bench is a very simple form that highlights variety in the different scrap woods. Mitered joints allow the lines to be carried from the top down the legs. In it you'll find strips of walnut, mahogany, maple oak bamboo and apple plywood.
