Building a Bench - Japanese Style

In this project, I designed and built a bench incorporating Japanese-style architecture and laid some bow ties/butterflies along a crack I carved as a decorative feature.

Depending on how you argue the semantics of joinery, there are five or six different types of joinery in this project.
