giving a new sense of life to vintage cameras, ‘woodskin’ are customized cases that are applied to the exterior of the analogue devices. the project uses wood due to its material warmth and touch, which combined with the existing metal and glass elements provides an interesting offset. the skin is cut and moulded according to the individual piece, with each resulting in a unique texture, grain and color application.
