Furniture digital fabrication. Design and concept: Melicia Planchart. MID master in computational design. Open furniture
Woodpecker is a wood bending furniture system that allows a flat board of plywood to become a stable structural stool. The springing character of the living hinge is a fundamental part of the design. It can be easily folded into shape and disassembled for storage flat or hanged on the wall. The straps act tensing the structure into place and the supports prevent the hinge from rocking further when fixed. This prototype intended for children with easy and comprehensive assemble steps make it suitable for all users. Fun to use and fun to have. Thanks to digital fabrication and its parametric design the Woodpecker is customizable and ready to fabricate, and to develop into a family of furniture.
Woodpecker furniture System is
Adaptable / Scalable / Stackable / Hanged / of Easy assembly
Fast Fabrication / Minimum storage space / requires no extra tools
