I'm really stuck. I've searched the web for designs without finding one that works for me. Seems that the more utilitarian designs aren't attractive and the attractive designs aren't utilitarian. I've taken my very utilitarian store-bought metal one into my shop and tried to envision a nice design that incorporates the utilitarian functions more elegantly. I've experimented with trying to create bent wood laminated members, but with limited success.
All of my previous experience is in making furniture and such, where the basic form is box-like and I'm feeling really inept trying to envision a free flowing form. Any suggestions?
