Personality Chess

Character is an important element of design that is often overlooked; without it, the object lacks the value of personality.

​

Bold in colour, yet subtle in form, personality chess stretches the boundaries between traditional and modern chess sets. Hand made from turned beech wood and stained with solid wood dyes, the traditional ways of making add a further layer of character to this project, creating a friendly and inviting presence to an often intimidating game.
