Black and Honey Wheat drums with a CNC-machined isogrid shell and open response.

Overview

Kumiko moves a woodworking discipline into precision machining.

The isogrid pattern is machined directly into the shell, so the surface changes as the light moves across it.

Quiet rhythm. Open response. A shell that holds the light differently.
