Fat Wood Byobu

We created a Byobu using fat wood. Byobu is a traditional Japanese folding screen. The fat wood is a precious material that can be extracted from pines, which is rich in resin. The resin, which has accumulated over many years, changes a red color when it catches light. This material is combined with Byobu to create Fat Wood Byobu. Fat Wood Byobu have 3 functions. By using special joints to connect the panels, Fat Wood Byobu can be transformed into various shapes, and its function also changes.
