About 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 2...Read More

N3 Dining Table Sculpted in Solid Walnut
By Aaron Scott Design
Located in Brooklyn, NY
The N-series uses rotational symmetry to explore the relationship between organic form and negative space. The pieces are fabricated by means of a stacked-lamination process, then sculpted by hand to achieve their final shape. Through careful attention to engineering, the wood becomes essentially a plastic medium, capable of taking on highly intricate, eccentric forms, without compromising its strength or stability. The N3 dining table has 3 rotational symmetries, and each ‘leg’ tapers and rotates by exactly the same amount as it extends upwards. Two different utilitarian objects inform the design of the table: a propeller and a tripod. A propeller uses...
