ABOUT TENON
In woodworking, a tenon is a precise, intentional form shaped to fit seamlessly into its counterpart. It’s a subtle but essential joinery that allows two separate pieces to come together as one, creating strength through harmony. It’s a meeting point, where structure is born from connection.
