Jude Night Stand

I made this nightstand early in my journey to becoming a furniture maker. My son needed a nightstand for college, and he gave me the design. I took the overall form as inspiration and re-evaluated each aspect of it, modifying the overall size to fit his space. I also dimensioned the legs to create harmony with the overall proportions of the piece and sized the drawer, so it sat comfortably below the negative space above it. Lastly, I chose straight-grained wood for the legs to quietly frame the more figured grain of the top, sides, and drawer front.

Material: Black Cherry
Size: 24” tall, 21” wide, 16” deep
