Team 4, Swindon, England, 1967




COMMISSIONS bring the craftsmanship and techniques seen in my furniture and artwork to clients who have a specific space or project in mind. I can also integrate into an existing project (e.g., interior remodel, restaurant seating build-out) and fabricate on your timeline. My workshop is fully equipped with metalworking and woodworking equipment. I have select partner fabricators for CNC milling, specialty finishes, casting, glass-work, and more.



PRINCIPLES


  • Foreground craftsmanship as defining component of furniture and creative projects.
  • Work with emerging artists and material specialists to accelerate growth in the local craft community.
  • Use materials wisely and honor their origins.



PROCESS
Submit the form on this page to join the Waitlist. You will be contacted to talk about feasibility and timeline. We will then formulate the direction of the project through design meetings and site visits if necessary.  Next,  I will move into production and keep you up-to-date until delivery and install!



To join the Waitlist, fill out the form with your project details and contact information.
