The journey to creating the felt leaf mobile began with my long-standing fascination with kinetic art, particularly the mobiles of Alexander Calder. As a child, I remember being mesmerized by the way his creations seemed to defy gravity, effortlessly dancing in the air. That sense of movement and balance stuck with me throughout my life.
Years later, while working with various materials in my woodworking studio, I was inspired to merge my love for woodworking with materials like felt. This combination of natural wood and felt perfectly captured the mid-century modern aesthetic I admired. The contrast between the warm birch plywood and the colourful felt seemed to bring the piece to life.
I wanted to create something that was not only visually stunning but also adaptable for any space—whether it be a home office, a living room, or even a nursery.
