ROOMBA COVER
MATERIALS: cherry, leather
DIMENSIONS: 14"l X 14"W X 3"H
A solid cherry cover for robotic vacuums that transforms it into an object of warmth and tranquility. Roombas are so fun to watch, their movements precocious and whimsical. I wanted to make a cover that endows the robot with life and character.
