Tribune, Home & Garden Sunday May 23, 2004 Designers move beyond mere looks at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair NARRATIVE COLLECTION SIDE CHAIR BY BRYCE AND KERRY MOORE OF CONTEXT FURNITURE Plywood turns into a noble material in the hands of this Michigan-based husband-wife design team who introduced a collection of seating and tables at ICFF (their first national show). Each of their designs starts as a simple outline, an essential "graphic icon," explains Kerry, whose background, fittingly, is in graphic design. And then that icon gets highly crafted in ordinary Baltic birch plywood. They tease a Modern elegance out of the material and get it to look subtly striated by exposing the edge grains (where the layers of plywood are glued together). And then they punch it up by incorporating a stripe of hardwood walnut, maple or mahogany into each piece of furniture. |

Style, June 2004 When industrial plywood meets meticulous craftsmanship the result can embody both art and function. Such is the case in the contemporary collection of Context furniture by Royal Oak designers Bryce and Kerry Moore. Bryce, a College of Creative Studies graduate, and Kerry create tables and chairs from combined layers of commercial Baltic birch plywood fused with sections of natural hardwoods. The process begins with the final silhouette of the object and then slices the form into the layers required. "We have a well-edited collection right now," says Bryce, "but this process allows us to stretch our imaginations in infinite ways. We do lots of custom pieces." Four new designs will debut at the prestigious International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) in New York this month. "I think people are ready for fine wood pieces," says Kerry. |
