BOXES - IV - BX40212
In addition to boxes which just protect the content, that are mostly very functional and minimal in their design, there are boxes that can enhance the content in their presentation and purpose.
It's possible to add or to tell a new story in their form, helping to lift up the content to a higher level. To be a beautiful object in its own right.
To be able to make the box of your dreams, it's important to know how to approach it.
In this workshop we learn what kinds of preparation are important to take before starting any cutting or building.
Deviant angular boxes are the subject of this workshop.
All kinds of non right angled corners, sides or surfaces in the base or the lid of a box
are possible and can be practiced in this workshop.
(Boxes with round, concave or convex forms in the base or lid, as well as hinges and drawers, will be treated in subsequent workshops).
Each participant will make his/her own design for a box. This design will be worked
out during the workshop.
The materials we will use are cardboard and paper.
For your own sake there are some restrictions in the design: let's say not bigger than about A4, a cupboard with 12 drawers is not a very valuable experience... and a pyramid can be too high.
Try to level your design expectations with your skills. To stand on tiptoe to achieve your aim lets you grow,
trying to fly lets you fall.
Go for the construction,
forget the frills.
Later, when you made the skills your own, it's your playtime.
Because all the participants are working on their own designs, there will be all kinds of different forms emerging. This gives a perfect opportunity to learn
from each other.
Important learning points will be shared with the whole group.
This is an advanced workshop: to follow it experience in box making is required.
