A table that seats six there s a framework for me. Furniture design is a socially acceptable compulsion. A one-man shop tends to be kindred spirits. I can indulge in this passion and people like it and they re paying me. Wood by itself is gorgeous.
Wood is so cool.
Some just buy fancy wood with spectacular grain, sort of like they re hanging it on a wall. I take my designs and paint them flat black. If it looks good like that then it s worthy of wood. Design should have integrity. If I want brown, then I use brown wood.
