Every project leaves something behind. Not the sawdust; that sweeps up. It's the extra dowels, the new clamp, the third attempt you're too attached to throw out. Give it a year and the bench has become a shelf.
I asked fifteen makers about it. People who 3D print, sew, paint, record music, tuft rugs. Not one of them liked how their space worked.
Hutch hangs on the wall. The things you use every day sit at eye level. The things you use once a month slide away on drawers. The table pulls out when the job is big and tucks back when it isn't. Every piece is optional, so it turns into whatever your corner needs.
It was my ArtCenter thesis, fourteen weeks start to finish, and I built a working plywood prototype for Grad Show.
