Exhibition 'RAF Inspired : The Furniture Makers' in Royal Air Force Museum, London
Rycotewood Furniture Centre has been a highly respected institution for the past 75 years and holds on to its strong roots in skilled craftsmanship and woodworking. Its students are currently working with the Royal Air Force Museum to develop a series of public seating as part of this year’s RAF Centenary as part of the Museum's Historic Hendon Project.
The main aspect of this brief was for students to find something within the Museum that inspired them, whether it was the aircraft itself, the people behind the RAF or perhaps the grounds and local area. The Museum gave a series of presentations about the RAF's Centenary Project and students were then free to wander the Hangars, sketch and explore what intrigued them.
