The Idea
The idea for Spiro came to me over the summer. On my back verandah, a spider made a web from a deck chair to a lawn mower to a potted plant etc., and each day I would remove and use an item, breaking its web. The next day, the web was reformed, but the design would be tweaked and thus, the idea for Spiro was born.
