Now Show Me The Fully Built Version




American artist Ted Lott has created 'sit stay', a highly architectural work based on the language of woodworking. In the piece, the frame of a two story home has been fashioned with an antique, high-backed chair as its base. lott's notion of contemporary craft includes his reconceptualization of the restrictions placed on woodworking due to the seemingly inseparable connection to formality and tradition and origin observed in this medium.

He built a house out of wood onto the back of a char.

That's all you have to say. There's no call to get all hyperbolic about it. It is what it is. Nothing more.
