Well in my case it is often just a glimmer of an idea, more a feeling really, set off by an object or sometimes just a shape. Like this desk - Nicola picked up a lovely rimu headboard and laid flat the shape just said "desk". But not just any desk. Add a drawer and and some legs and a desk with more than a hint of the "Jetsons" or the "Thunderbirds" is revealed.
It all just came together in a lively simplicity. Plain oiled and waxed rimu, widely angled legs and slightly curved top giving life to the piece.
Lovely. You can see it for yourself if you like, I'll have it at the Havelock North Craft and Design Market tomorrow. I believe there may be chocolate cake too if you are early :-)
I LOVE this table! Wish I could come to the market and see it in person - especially if there's cake ;-)
