Dresser

Designer: Katie Banks

Spring 2006

Photography: Alan Harp

The form of the dresser is a direct product of function based on the needs of the designer. The end result was a marriage of a conventional vanity and a contemporary dresser. The piece is solid wood and is largely made from Jatoba, has accents done in Wenge, and the back is maple plywood. The drawers are made from solid maple and maple plywood. Some CNC machining was used in the construction. The dresser measures 64"w x 20"d x 33"h. The mirror is 80 h".

The dresser won Honorable Mention at the 2006 IWF Design Emphasis Competition.
