Concept
The song "Lay-Z-Boy" by Kyle Dixon & Michael Stein, takes on a mystical yet calming tone of the analog synths. The piece dominantly takes on a repetitive rhythm through a sequential linear progression. It transcends towards the end when the gentle flow of counterpart joins in, expanding the melody into a freer body form.
These polar characteristics visually translate into the main structure of the drawer with a symmetrical volume. Division of 9 drawers shows the dominance of repetition. Revealed sides of the drawer composed the elements of sequential linear progression. The radial motif on its frontal surface embraces the duality characteristics of the song - convergence and divergence.
Keywords: Inwards convergence of contemplation vs Outwards divergence of radiation
