Tom Loeser fabricates his designs using traditional woodworking skills with a special focus on surfaces and hand-applied paint. Often working with milk paint, Loeser combines custom-mixed colors with natural wood to produce surface treatments that articulate the form and structure of his pieces. He often uses stripes, lines and other two-dimensional forms as compositional elements that guide the viewers’ eyes around the piece.
When he first began making furniture, Tom Loeser discovered that conceiving, designing and constructing one-of-a-kind functional objects offered a rewarding total immersion in the creative process. For Loeser, the challenges and rewards of inventing new ieces from scratch remain as satisfying as ever.
STATEMENT
When designing a new piece I like to work from the history of furniture. I look at how objects are used, and then try to invent new visual forms that turn the historical approach to function inside out or upside down or backwards. My goal is to captivate the user with new possibilities.
