Record Cabinet by Ross Thompson

Geelong-based woodworker and furniture maker Ross Thompson’s work fuses the traditiona­l craft of furniture making – its careful, intricate joins and processes – with the intent of a designer, who produces work with strong creative intent. His elegant pieces include the Record Cabinet, a piece that touches on nostalgia, with the interactiv­e process of the tambour doors reflecting the process of spinning vinyl. Thompson credits his minimalist approach to a strong appreciati­on for Japanese and Bauhaus design principles. Ross Thompson — rossthomps­on.com.au
