Designing an object usually depends on its functional and physical purpose. This is referred to as good design. My thesis transcends the use of an object from its physical to its psychological, giving an object a purpose beyond physical use to function for basic psychological needs. In an in-depth study of psychology and design, I have drawn upon Buddhist and oriental practices to create a contemplative furniture collection. Combining geometry,in design with natural earth elements, I have created individual furniture pieces that manipulate light to change an internal space, and outlet a sense of serenity and flow for contemplation and reflection. As modern living consumes our lives, this furniture aims to keep our minds free for thought in an ever-growing battle.
