Out of the Woodworks

Seeking to restore the balance between people and planet, the 'Out of the Woodworks' open
call by NOV Gallery challenges designers and makers to demonstrate a new appreciation for
the value and role of timber in today's material world. While wood is placed as a sustainable
material option, when sourced from responsibly managed forests, this project invites us to
look at its reuse by using an existing wooden object as the starting point. In reimagining the
objects, and reinventing their aesthetic or function, it blends craft and high tech with each
project underpinned by a circular mindset. And, in exploring more meaningful methods of
creation, we contribute to a positive, and more sustainable future.
