In an era where design bridges tradition and innovation, objects must embody both function and intention. With digital fabrication expanding and materials evolving, designers are called to let old and new coexist in dialogue. This project explores how technology can enhance and revitalize craft, creating a hybrid language of material and movement—rooted in the past yet shaped by the future.
The idea began by observing turned wooden rods, embracing their simplicity and uniformity. Instead of imposing complexity, the design lets wood remain understated, while structure and rhythm emerge through assembly. A single 3D-printed connector directs the composition, translating rotation into logic and repetition into motion.
Stool In Motion turns necessity into expression. The connector anchors twelve wooden legs at precise angles, using only compression—no glue, no hardware—while becoming the visual gesture. Incremental rotation of the legs creates a spiral sequence, where motion emerges through repetition and orientation.

Bio Currently studying industrial design, I bring a creative, detail-oriented approach to problem-solving, with a foundation in web development. I’m a quick and adaptable learner, highly motivated, and thrive in collaborative environments. My focus is on combining aesthetics and functionality to create innovative, user-centered designs.
