This year we’re collaborating with Wool and the Gang for Design Week!
Together we’ve created a unique line of furniture that explores the idea of self-created home environments, with a central focus on the craft tradition. WATG produces their high quality wool in the mountains of Peru, and they sell both ready-to-wear and knit-your-own pieces. The metal and wood components, handmade in our studio, combine wtih a textural mix of cotton and wool.
Design Week in three days!
We’re thrilled to be a part of the Core 77 Open. Five designers from each of the five boroughs of New York City- we’re repping Brooklyn. Can’t wait to see the other pieces.
Four days till Design Week starts!
Some pics of what we’re working on for the 12 x 12 show- opening next weekend at Wanted Design!
Twelve designers got twelve different reclaimed woods to rework into furniture. We got scaffolding that has been used on maintenance for public elementary schools around the city. We decided to use both the black spruce and the metal supports.

Truck springs, reclaimed from FDNY fire trucks. This is how we get them, and then cleaned up, they become the base for our Bilge Lounge.
We’re working on a brand new version of this for Design Week!
Sight Unseen came by our shop last week to take a few photos. Check them out! (Our space starts on photo 12.)
They also did a great studio visit last year.
A magnificently figured claro walnut Milo Base slab, 12’ long. Off to its new home in Arizona.
We were a part of the American Design Club’s latest show, Threat. The premise was to design an object that you would grab if you had a home intruder. We decided to create some bulletproof trays. Perfect for serving up some cheese and crackers, and a perfect shield to get you out the door.

Some pics from the Armory Show, pier 94, this weekend! We did the VIP booth with Paddle8. On display was the new Buoy Lamp (more to come on that!), Boardwalk Console, and Drum Lamp.
They also used some of our raw materials in an editorial on the Nordic focus of the show.
