For this year’s Dutch Design Week, JB was invited by Piet Hein Eek to build a new shed called the Lumber Camp. It is made from Piet’s leftover wood and JB’s colorful duct tape, with the help of some screws. JB’s abilities to adapt to any context helped him to create his own space, displaying his universe through recent works inspired from fantasy and video games
This shed is made the same way as the furniture displayed inside, using the Bundle technique of tightening wood beams together with duct tape. Here, this Bundle technique is used on a larger scale. By looking closely at the construction, wobbly connections, visible screws and flaws can be seen to show the different steps of the process.

Visitors are welcome to come inside, have a look at the works, take a seat and enjoy a drink from the bar. This place is made for people to gather and relax. In this evolutive space, JB will be there to make tours of the shed and do construction performances during the week.
