Work
Each project starts with the constraint — what made it hard, how I solved it, what it delivered. Click any project to go deeper.
Mid-Century Nightstand Pair
"Clients Joey and Becca needed a matching nightstand pair with a specific mid-century profile — fluted drawer faces and turned legs — built in solid maple to coordinate with existing bedroom furniture, on a defined timeline."

Fluted Media Console
"The room couldn't fit a standard-depth console. Going shallower meant losing storage — so we made it taller instead. Every internal dimension was dictated by the client's actual equipment: a specific speaker, gaming systems that need airflow, and a preference to see as little of that equipment as possible."

Dining Room Banquette
"The family's most-used room needed more storage for kids' gear — rolling carts had completely overflowed. But the wall already had a gallery wall the client loved, a dining table that needed full seating capacity, and traffic flow that couldn't be disrupted. Off-the-shelf furniture solves none of that."

Blanton's Bourbon Display
"Given a single bottle and a concept — design a display for the full set of eight. Each bottle has a different stopper that tells part of a story. The piece had to show all of them clearly while holding each bottle securely in its own space."

Blockhead: CNC Fixture for Oversized Sculpture
"The client's sculpture — a stylized human figure — has a body approximately 6" thick and a head roughly 12" square. Both dimensions exceed what our CNC table can accommodate with standard workholding. Off-the-shelf solutions don't exist for this geometry."

ALD Dining Table
"Custom profile had to accept plaster without cracking — ruled out solid wood. MDF was the stable choice, but our trusted lathe team couldn't get a reliable glue-up blank at the size we needed, so the whole workflow had to shift to CNC."

Guitar Shed Stadium Seating
"Maximize seating in a limited floor plan — but the benches had to be storable. Nesting was the solution, which ruled out any apron under the seat. Without an apron, the full span had to be carried by the seat slab alone. That single constraint drove everything: material species, slab thickness, seat widths, and row heights. Too tall and adults are uncomfortable; too short and the stadium geometry doesn't work. Every dimension had to function across a wide range of ages and body sizes."
