The Kings School, NSW; teacher Julia Laman
1. Standing Tambour Cabinet, American white oak and zebrano. ‘Inspired by both modern Scandinavian and Japanese design, I designed the project with timber movement in mind to ensure it stands the test of time. Through a year of ups and downs, this project has kept me sane, giving me something to take with me as a reminder of this year wherever life takes me.’
WHAT THE JUDGES SAID
With an array of advanced techniques and layers of surprise throughout, Jack Vukasović’s Standing Tambour Cabinet shows a great understanding of materials and a great design flare with good proportions and faithful motifs. William Bayliss
RUNNER-UP: JAYDEN NEW
Calrossy Anglican School, NSW; teacher Ian Scott
2. Pool/Dining Table: A slate bed pool
table rotates along its axis to reveal a dining table in silky oak with rock maple and New Guinea rosewood detailing. Matching bench seats provide storage. The rotation of the tabletop is actuated via a custom hydraulic dampener.
WHAT THE JUDGES SAID
Fun, functional and very well executed. Great fit and finish. William Bayliss
