Furniture Construction
All surfaces needed to be able to be stood on, so I used 3/4" MDF for construction.
The rear view of the pouffe.
First layer of batting.
Upholstered. Attached a cushion and a gold decoration made from landau foam. Added casters.
In process. From "Brooklyn Boy" by Donald Margulies.
Dangerous Liasions. Forest Roberts Theatre--Northern Michigan University.
This is the finished bed before the scenic artists painted it. This production of "Brooklyn Boy" was a co-production with Manhattan Theatre Club, so the bed had to break down into pieces for shipping. It comes apart into five pieces: 1) Main Platform 2) Base 3) Headboard 4,5) Bedside Tables.
Another angle of the bed.
Interior framing.
The metal bracket allowed the headboard to be bolted to the bed.
The head was left open to allow the pieces to be bolted together.
