Lxv Wall-Mounted Shelf, Handcrafted in Walnut
About the Item
The LXV shelf is inspired by the period furniture of Louis XV. Design of this era made a clean break from the imposing and rigid designs of Louis XIV by placing emphasis instead on lightness, comfort and sensuality – and thus bringing the body into a more intimate relationship with the furniture object. In my own work I have used strategies like rotational-symmetry, non-Euclidean geometry and complex curvature to draw the spectator into the object’s geomorphic logic, and certain motifs present in the furniture of the Louis XV period already find some degree of expression in my work; the LXV series represents a further exploration of these formal and conceptual relationships. Works in the LXV series are constructed of solid wood using the stacked-lamination method.
The LXV shelf mounts be means of a hidden cleat that fastens to the wall (provided).

Aaron Scott Design
All of my designs are the product of trial-and-error experimentation in the studio, where I work from sketches, scaled plaster models, and mock-ups. I’m interested in furniture and lighting whose forms suggest movement, dynamism and instability. In the N-series for example, a body of work dating from 2010, I treat wood as a plastic medium capable of expressing curvature along any axis. All of the pieces in the N-series are rotationally symmetrical, which gives the organic forms a geometrical logic that can only be grasped by circumambulating the pieces. Since the early 2000s I’ve worked almost exclusively with stacked-laminate construction – a technique that relies on the careful laying-out of alternating grain patterns on parallel pieces of wood, overlapped in successive layers. The process is both additive and subtractive: in the first stage the rough form is built by stacking glued-up layers, each corresponding to a given point on the x, y or z axes. These layers, laminated together in a stair-like or topographical form, are then sculpted with handheld power tools to obtain the final, smooth surface. If engineered properly the stacked-laminate method can achieve outstanding strength and stability. With each successive piece I’ve attempted to push the boundaries of the medium of wood and of my own imagination, posing and re-posing the question to myself: Which parts of the volume are essential and which can be removed?
