The AMBERLEY CUPBOARD appeals to me because of the dialogs between legacy craft, high-tech innovation and modern day living. This is done by engaging all the senses by applying generous loving attention to detail in shape, material and touch. This design really gives me inspiration for my own exam piece.

6.My reflection video
the woodjoints used in this desing;
- lamello's are used inbetween the left/right and the middle shelf.
- the doors are sliding on a track because of the grove they have.
- the legs are turned wood and are connected by either a pen or a dowel.
the wood techniques used in this design;
- this cabinet is made of solid wood and veneer on multiplex.
- the doors look like they are made of slats on both sides that are connected by textile in between.
- this cabinet is sanded and fisnished with an transparant oil.
- what i really like about this cabinet is how soft it looks and i eally wanna research that for my own piece.
the links to this design are;
- the desing is curved and that makes it looks soft.
- because of the shape of this design it indicates that it is hand made wich makes it look more interesting.
- the cabinet looks like it has a lot of space and by seeing the inside this thought is valid the cabinet allows for a lot of storage.
- because of the use off one kind of wood the cabinet has a tight and clean look its not distracting or an eye sore.
- this piece has givin me a lot of inspiration for my own exam ideas.
In this video I will be asking my classmate some questions about what he has learned this school period and what ideas he has for his exam next year.
how is it made?;
- the top and bottom of this piece are made from solid oak wood. what he has done is made an extantion by glueing together multiple planks to make one big one.
the top piece has been routert to give it one higher edge.
- the rest of the cabinet is made of multiplex covered in oak veneer.
- the wooden legs are turned oak a technique i would like to learn in the future.
