Unlock the secrets of thoughtful design and move beyond the "blueprint" to create boxes that tell a story.

In Designing Boxes, master craftsman Doug Stowe invites you to look past basic construction and explore the artistic soul of woodworking. While many books focus on step-by-step projects, this guide dives into the "Why-to" of the craft—teaching you how to infuse your work with harmony, rhythm, and personal expression.

Whether you're a seasoned maker looking to break free from plans or an intermediate woodworker ready to develop a signature style, Stowe provides the philosophical and practical tools to elevate your craft.

Through a series of elegant projects, you will learn how the relationship between materials, tools, and the maker influences every line and joint. This is more than a manual; it is a masterclass in visual storytelling through wood, intended to build your confidence as a designer and an artisan.

In this book, you will explore:

  • Design Principles: How to use texture, contrast, and proportion to create “Visual Gravity.”
  • Material Narrative: Choosing wood species not just for strength, but for their ability to convey a mood or history.
  • The Maker’s Relationship: How the choice of a specific hand tool or machine setup dictates the final aesthetic of the piece.
  • Evolving Technique: Strategies for letting the design process guide your technical growth, resulting in one-of-a-kind heirloom treasures.

Nice shower mat
Size: 50" X 30", Color: Navy
I have had it for almost a month now and run it through the washer and dryer. Its nice and soft, decent size I did not use a measuring tape to check how precise the sizing is. Absorbs the water when I step out of the shower well and doesn't feel wet or let anything through. Stays in place on the tile floor. Only challenge has been the robot vacuum cleaner gets trapped on it about half the time, but this might just be a testament to its thick nature.

Soft and washes well.
Size: 30" X 20", Color: Grey
These are great rugs and I keep going back and buying more. They are such a good value for money and they wash really easily. They don't slide or shed and they are very durable. They are very soft.So far we have them in both bathrooms and next to our bed.

Great Purchase
Size: 24" X 24" Contour Rug, Color: Beige
I picked these rugs (I purchased 3 of them) because it said its for elongated toilets. I have elongated toilets so I ordered for each room, they are a little large. I thought they would fit the toilet perfectly and not be large where it moves away from the side of the toilet. they are all very soft, like a shag rug, nice and thick and they come in many colors. The only thing I would change is the price of the light grey rug.

Good mat, good price, 'nuff said.
Size: 30" X 20", Color: Grey
While the photo suggests that this mat is enormous, it is a pretty good size at 30 x 20 inches. The chenille is very soft and feels nice on your feet. There is a rubber backing that prevents slippage on smooth bathroom floors. Overall there is nothing terribly noteworthy about this bathmat - it's a nice, high quality mat at a very good price. A good deal every day.
