Wood-Skin’s Milled Plywood Surfaces Allow It To Fold Like Textile
Wood-Skin’s Milled Plywood Surfaces Allow It To Fold Like Textile |


Quote:
First introduced three years ago, Wood-Skin creates sheets of wood that can bend into any polygonal shape. That’s right, it’s malleable wood. Well, it’s not exactly pure wood. Instead, it’s a composite material consisting of two layers of wood that sandwiches a layer of strong yet flexible synthetic textile...................

To build a piece of furniture, you simply take a sheet, fold it to create the furniture’s shape, and you’re done, facilitating a fabrication process that’s simpler than anything before it.
