MATERIAL LIBRARY: Fabrication & Installation

12/2025

88/26812—81
REX-13: 978-0882681/283
Studio Ooni consulted on the design, and carried out in full the fabrication and installation of this Material Library for EDG Architecture + Engineering.

Located in one of their meeting spaces, this material library became an opportunity for the millwork itself to be a material sample.

Each bay features a different species of wood (ash, white oak and walnut from left to right), each row finished in a different shade and three unique finger pull details employed throughout.
