Furniture is often created to appear as seamlessly put together as possible, which is what makes Stephen Johnson's new synthetic dough entitled PLAY, such a unique concept.
The item was modeled after children's Play-doh, but functions as a strong adhesive that's powerful enough to bond wood, glass, marble and even metal. PLAY is rendered in a variety of bright colors, like green, blue pink and purple, creating a visually striking effect to every piece of furniture it's used on. In order to demonstrate the strength of this product, Johnson create tables out of the design dough.
In addition to the playful furniture constructions, Johnson also recommends the adhesive be used to decorate furniture, like lamps or tabletops.
