Embossing Wood from Hemmo Honkonen
Embossing wood is an exploration of a new surface texturing method for wood.
Embossing wood is an exploration of an experimental embossing method for wood. The method is based on the thermo-hydro-mechanical properties of wood and allows easy and cost-efficient texturing of wooden surfaces. Textures that would be too slow and expensive to produce with conventional methods become feasible. The set of furniture serves as sample pieces that demonstrate the different qualities and the potential of the surfaces.
