  1. Recently I have been thinking a lot about using similar cuts and shapes to produce different versions of the same piece. I appreciate the variations Ferrara is able to create while still using the same techniques. It goes to show that a clean simple idea can be pushed further and redeveloped over and over again.

  2. I looove the repetition that this kind of design facilitates. Also I can imagine that the pieces would be ungodly strong because of the support of the material. I wonder what she uses for connective material, however. Does she use the bar-screw strategy we've seen before or is it wood glue?
