This project started purely as a bed but the need for shipping and lack of certain tools to properly locate and drill holes for fasteners created a need for a laser cut system to allow for ease of assembly. Carriage bolts are used and locked in place by square holes. Slotted holes are also used in the plates that connect to the wood to allow for movement.
The Twist Media Stand was meant to be a compact piece for those who have minimal electronic entertainment needs. Materials are walnut, plastic laminate, and powder coated steel legs similar to the twist bench.
This desk was a venture project with Kendrick Anderson for Mailchimp’s new headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. The desk was designed for the CEO who wanted a metal base, pen tray, clip board, and a custom wire management system. The base was CNC plasma cut from 3/8″ steel plate. The top is reclaimed white oak from an abandoned mill in Alabama.
A simple take on the basic bench using padauk and round steel tubing. Finishes are clear lacquer and dark grey powder coating.
I designed this side table to be used as either a bedside table or a reading table. The lack of a drawer minimizes the accumulation of unneeded items. The wood used is a reclaimed marabou finished with lacquer sitting on laser cut steel legs finished with a matte black enamel.
The plan for Paramount was to give the space a modern, garage-like feel. My responsibilities in this project was to design all the furniture, lighting, and bar elements. The furniture is all welded laser cut steel with a clear-coated rust patina. The bar top and seats on the stools are all edge grain plywood. Garage reel lights were arranged on a custom laser cut steel fixture and strung across the space to provide a soft amber lighting.
