If you visit Zakaria Boucetta at his Tucson home, you may play a more important role than that of a guest: You may just inspire his next creation. \u201cI always look at how guests use my furniture,\u201d he says, his voice carrying a hint of a smile. \u201cIt makes my future decisions easier.\u201d In addition to being one half of the architectural firm known as Studio BoPA<\/a>, Boucetta also happens to be a talented, self-taught craftsman who is gaining acclaim for the furnishings he creates by hand through Atelier BoPA. So far, he\u2019s released two collections (Series 00 and 01), which include chairs, stools and a chaise lounge that \u201call follow a similar language,\u201d he notes. Each piece nods to the geometry of Boucetta\u2019s Moroccan upbringing, the planks of knotty alder fitted together in perfectly imperfect ways. While North African design influences the composition of his work, the Sonoran Desert lays claim to its soul. \u201cI\u2019m very driven by the landscapes,\u201d he says, explaining how he stains each piece and invites them to age naturally with use. \u201cI really get inspired by the nature out here and the tones.\u201d\u00a0It\u2019s an exciting year ahead for Boucetta, who plans to release a new collection and recently opened an atelier in downtown Tucson where appointments are available upon request.<\/p><\/div>\r\n\r\n
