asks:
how are the seams held together?
All the cases are assembled with slots and tabs. That’s partially how I came up with the name “Tuch” (pronounced like “tuck”), because I’m “tucking” the tabs in the slots. There’s more to the name, but I digress and I’ll save that for another time.
I spent a lot of time experimenting with various configurations and sizes of tabs and slots until I found the ones that work for each given task. Not only do the tabs have to have the optimal strength but they also have to have the right proportions so that they add to the overall rhythm of the design.
