Matt Wakeham sent us recently some photos of his work making his design of nesting coffee tables from the OneOak tree.
Matt, an 18 year old student who studies at Rycotewood, was one of the two winners in our 2012 OneOak fine furniture competition. You can about the competition and the winning entries here.
Matt’s pieces will be on display, alongside all the other OneOak products, at Art in Action in July (see Events).
