Alexandra Snook creates whimsical pieces of furniture that are stunningly sculptural and yet completely practical as well. With a particular fascination with translucent white polypropylene, she creates designs that are uniquely intricate with an overall minimalist aesthetic due to her use of one color and material.
As a recent Rhode Island School of Design Master of Fine Arts graduate, Alexandra Snook's designs are surprisingly accomplished. So much so that I wouldn't be surprised if I saw of these lamps or seats in the window of a furniture shop sometime in the very near future.
The bends and details seen throughout Alexandra Snook's work denote a huge amount of talent and skill, not to mention vision and determination. Alexandra Snook also designs belt buckles and necklaces.
