These Fruit-Shaped Instruments by Celentano Woodworks Rock
Vittoria Natarelli — May 22, 2010 — Art & Design
These fruit-shaped instruments by Celentano Woodworks can help you combine your love of squishy green fruit and two-stringed instruments like the avocado guitar. The Etsy-sold creation is a unique blend of two seemingly unrelated things.
Talk about being an original! Celentano Woodworks' instruments are 100% functional, customizable pieces of playable art. My favorite is the heart baritone ukulele.
Implications - Advancements in digital music production have affected the adoption of analog musical instruments, but designers are sidestepping this obstacle by creating avant-garde instruments that challenge traditional notions of what a guitar, piano or drum set should look like. By adopting unusual forms, these artistic instruments can appeal to a wider market.
