See-saw seat is an experimental seat driven by the wood-working explorations. Started by understanding the way of wood, a collaborative object was made for interaction. The
cantilever structure operates through a slip-and-
grip system, while charcoal traces from the timber
brush register the transformation of movement
across surface textures.
Kerf-cut seat and Marking tool respond to movement and pressure, creating an interactive and engaging experience. They form a cohesive system that transforms bodily interaction into dynamic spatial expression.2025Interior Design Practices

Extending from the collaborative
article, the project explores performative
and experimental seating inspired by the
movements of Marking, Gliding, and
Bending. These actions inform the design
process, translating motion into spatial
expressions that shape how the body
interacts with the seat and leaves its trace
upon the surface.

Rocking The seat frame is composed of three layers of timber, carefully processed through a series of cutting, heating, pre-bending,
and glue-bending techniques to achieve a strong and resilient curved form.A reinforced structure is introduced to support the central seating element. Crafted from solid American Rock Maple and Oak, the components are precisely cut, shaped, and glued together with the frame layers, ensuring both stability and seamless integration within the overall form.
