Intro to Sustainable Product Design with Wood

“We have come to the end of this course. Thank you for your interest and participation and I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. With the knowledge I have given you, you can approach the design of any wooden object and let your imagination run wild. I'd be happy if you don't pursue the exact same project I showed you in the course. Whatever you have designed and made, show it to me on the forum. I am excited! Find inspiration Take a walk and get inspired. By observing your surroundings and everyday objects, you can come up with ideas for your designs. Develop the idea further Further develop your idea in the form of sketches, miniature models and/or 3D models and create a list of materials and tools.

Prepare the parts Prepare all the individual parts and mark them all so that you can keep your bearings throughout the entire work process. Then work them out according to your plan. Build the furniture Connect all the individual parts and make your piece of furniture. Then you can think about fixing it in some places to make it more stable. Treating and finishing the wood Decide on a method of surface treatment and finishing to give your woodwork the finishing touch. Keep in mind that indoor furniture does not require any finishing - so this is optional in this case. You can upload your finished project to the forum by simply clicking on "Create your project". Don't forget to share both your finished piece of furniture and pictures of the different stages of the work process. You are also welcome to add a short description. The forum gives you the opportunity not only to present your projects, but also to exchange ideas with other course participants and to find more inspiration. Of course, I will stop by as often as possible and be at your side with advice and feedback. Have fun and hope to see you soon! ”
