FACET

OBJECTIVE: Jewelry boxes have taken a broad variety of forms, from minimalistic plastic containers to wooden structures inspired by giant treasure chests.

The best forms are naturally occuring. They are not made of artificial, industrial materials that look too common and degrade the environment.

PROBLEM: Create a fully-functional jewelry box exploring an aspect of nature that you find most interesting or pleasing.
