Veneer Bleed is a furniture series that reimagines manufacturing excess as aesthetic potential. By preserving the irregular, untrimmed veneers left after hot-pressing plywood, the design elevates industrial “waste” into expressive detail. It transforms the remnants of production into a new design language—one that reflects the raw elegance of material truth and the artistry within process.
