“I used the best material.” But does that make it good design?
Using Red Beech doesn’t automatically mean you’ve achieved quality.
If the material isn’t properly treated, prepared, or selected for the actual application, then choosing the “best” material can still result in a bad product.
Quality isn’t about using the most expensive material.
It’s about understanding the material and knowing why you’re using it.
That’s the difference between following what you’ve been taught and actually thinking like a furniture designer.
Real design is about making the right decision for the right problem.
