Wood Skin
An intriguing composite material that aesthetically resembles patterned wood but is foldable like a sheet that can be layered upon most surfaces. Creating Wood Skin is more of a digital fabrication process by CNC-ing a certain pattern into the wood, allowing it to fold in different directions and become a flexible mesh.
Available in many different patterns and colours , and can be designed to any shape and size. Excellent material that resembles organic skin, for architectural and interior design projects. WoodSkin simplifies the process of making complex shapes by removing the necessity of a malleable understructure to support them
