West Elm Acorn Leg Desk Replica
Inspired by the elegant and simple design of the West Elm Acorn Leg Desk.
The original
Small tweaks were made from the original desk. Mainly the hardware was changed from an intermix of circular drawer pulls and long drawer pulls to only circular drawer pulls.
PROCESS
Sketch
Only having access to photos of the desk, it was important to create a sketch of the assembled desk in miniature scale. This allows for a thorough understanding of how the replica will be created. Some parts require a slight tweak because of the miniature's small scale.
parts creation
Creating parts is the most important part of replicating a full scale object. Aligning of hardware and trim on small parts require precision hand drilling and clean application of adhesive.
