Splattered Organic Furniture

Alon Dodo's Modern Oak Dressers Feature an Imperfect Stain Design

— August 2, 2016 — Art & Design
Alon Dodo is a designer based in Israel who handcrafts organic furniture that employs creative techniques -- a concept that's evident in his series of solid oak dressers that are adorned with splattered black paint.

Other projects from Alon Dodo include a bed frame that's composed of integrated wood slabs, a bench that's supported by a base of interconnected bars and a drawer unit that's patterned with geometric engravings. Each of Alon Dodo's pieces works to push the boundaries of expectations and uses material in a new way.

With his oak dressers, Alon Dodo complements the natural markings of the wood by contrasting it with black paint. With this, the organic furniture plays to a modern aesthetic that generates a stimulative environment which showcases the beauty of imperfection.
