One Sheet Furniture Lab

The One Sheet Furniture Lab is a design-led woodworking format based on a simple constraint: working with a single sheet of material.

It is part of the design practice, where interaction of form, structure and material are explored, and witnessed how limitations can lead to clarity in design.

Working with one sheet forces decisions: How much material is necessary? Where can weight be reduced, and where must strength remain? How does structure emerge from form? In the lab, this process becomes visible. It is observed, documented and reflected in real time.

Participants move from idea to object. They sketch, test, adjust, and build. Each piece begins from the same starting point, yet becomes a unique object shaped by individual decisions.

The outcome is not only a finished object, but a deeper understanding of how design translates into structure, and how material responds to intention. This approach reflects my way of working as a designer, using constraints to reveal structure, clarity and form.
