Emily Falconer designs and builds simple, functional, furniture and objects with a focus on composition and craftsmanship. Working from a reductive process, she focuses on the details, carefully carving out elegantly shaped connections and joinery. Through the unlikely hybridization of minimalist and humanist philosophies she strives to create beautiful pieces and experiences.
Her work can be described as a carefully planned series of excavations, performed both by hand and with the use of digital tools. With equal emphasis on beauty and function, she builds furniture that is both sculptural and practical, pieces that exist somewhere in the large and varied grey area between fine art and contemporary design.
