“Welding Wood”. A new design of CuldeSac with technological innovation of the old

Culdesac has brought back two different production techniques of traditional furniture making (late joined wood and steam bentwood) both came in a different period of time, and both are good examples of production technique innovations at that time.

CuldeSac has combined them in a clear way to generate what they have defined as “Welding Wood”: Where two pieces connect, the section of the wood increases, and once this is done the wood is curved to achieve the structure and functionality.

The late work is no longer used just as an aesthetic provider, but it works more as a functionality provider, and that itself generates its own aesthetic.

The result is a sincere and transparent piece that possesses a formal, strong, robust, direct and very recognizable voice.

CuldeSac has tried to provide new appreciation for antiquated production techniques. They have tried to create a skin in the object that allows them to establish an ancestral and close relationship.
