This box is the final resting place of my old worn out work boots. Designed for the shoe box assignment in my furniture design studio, Spring of 2016, the oak box houses the boots while the broken leather boots house the plants. The box is inspired by the Bye-Bye Coffin, a burial service where a corpse in fetal position is put into a pod made of organic material and a tree grows from the pod, using the body matter to fertilize the growing tree.
