Wendell Castle

Wendell Castle was an American artist and designer who is considered one of the pioneers of American studio furniture. He is best known for his innovative and sculptural furniture designs that blur the boundaries between art and function.

In the 1960s, Wendell Castle began experimenting with traditional woodworking techniques and pushing the boundaries of furniture design. He gained recognition for his unique handcrafted pieces that challenged traditional notions of furniture aesthetics. Castle's work often features organic shapes, flowing lines and a sense of whimsy. He has used a variety of materials to create his sculptural furniture, including wood, fibreglass and plastic.
