Case Study: Custom Tables
A beloved Camphor Laurel reached the end of its life as a standing tree and was saved from the wood chipper and given second life as tables for the family that cared for it. A licensed arborist and sawyer were contracted to fell the tree and mill the log. I oversaw the air drying and created the tables, giving the tree new life at the center of family time. The table bases reference the work of George Nakashima.

Studying Great Works
“If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of Giants” - Newton, 1675.
 Reproducing a great work lets inspiration sink in as the time spent in fabrication is a meditation, changing perspective from observer of a piece to provide deeper access to the original designer's viewpoint. The intent behind sharing these studies is to celebrate their origins andrejoice in the practice. While our original and custom work references established design elements, we do not offer reproductions for sale.
