Measuring Tools
The project aims to give domestic measuring tools a greater value during their downtime, celebrating the tool and preventing them being tucked away in a drawer. Turning these tools into decorative objects by simplifying them and giving them striking forms gives the objects both a place on a shelf or in a display cabinet as well as being functional tools when you need them. Casting the tools in iron gives them a timeless quality and a further sense of permanence to most common utilitarian tools.
