The first workshop, in a series of five, about all forms of 'boxes'.
The basic forms of right-angled boxes, a neck-box and cover-box, is reviewed.
These are built from cardboard and covered in paper.
The emphasis is put on the construction, the covering (cut out of a single piece, as far as possible) and the finishing touches. Much attention is set to the matter in which these steps occur.

This four-day workshop is for both beginners and advanced students.
The workshop can also operate as a preview for the workshop 'boxes - II', in which simple hinges for right-angled boxes are treated.

Preceding this workshop there is a 1-day workshop about

SKETCHING AND CONSTRUCTION DRAWINGS OF BOXES
To understand how to build a box, one need to know how it is constructed, in which way each piece of cardboard has to be built and why in that specific following order. This day is introductory to the workshop 'BOXES - I', so the participants of this workshop have the priority to attend it: in case there would be places free, it can be possible to follow just the 1-day Sketching workshop.

Cor Aerssens takes his 25 years of experience in handmade boxes with him, to let you discover that your ideas can be made.
It is a fascinating world.
