Swedish designer
David Ericsson created a series of seven pieces of furniture and lighting using just two materials: beech, and vegetable tanned leather. A skilled carpenter, Ericsson created the pieces by hand and left joints and construction details exposed so that users can appreciate the craftsmanship involved in the making process.

Each piece is described not by function or concept, but by how Ericsson imagines it being used; so the Writing Desk is "a place to write your poems", the Chair is "to sit and wonder", and the Desk Lamp is to "light your poems".
