What is the ‘big (IDEA)’ behind this project?
Either as a stand alone piece or an assemblage, the DH Pack Mate Crate can be configured horizontally and vertically to become a stool, shelf, screen wall, storage unit, coffee table and more. Interlocked joints revealing end grain and profiled cross sections display the timber and plywood identity, that is amplified as the crates ‘fit’ yet ‘misfit’ together . . . the more there are, the more like itself it becomes. is Australian built from Australian, environmentally sustainable materials.
