Chose a historical time period and re-envision a 21st-century design inspired by this movement. Take this inspiration and design a cabinet that serves a specific purpose by including the principles of the interior and exterior.
Lowboy de Fleur is a medieval-inspired case good piece that is built using milk-painted plywood that is edge banded with Alder, aluminum handles, lightly pebbled leather, and steel decorative nails. This piece is designed for living room essentials including luxury throw blankets, precious coffee books, and necessary remotes. The design originates from the characteristics of furniture during the medieval period including dominant appearance, painted surfaces, decorative nails, substantial structure, and essential storage units. 400 hours were dedicated to this project from the ideation phase to completion.
