Loving industrial design and having lately been studying some of the work of Tom Kundig I wanted to design a piece that would put to use my new plasma cutter, work with several metal finishing techniques, and also utilize a mechanism (hinges and a handle). Working within those perameters I designed a wedding gift for a good friend and his new wife. A Whiskey Cabinet for him and a Wine Rack for her. Industrial but creative with that pinteresty flare of a "His and Hers" design. The whole piece is made from steel and, while photographs depict scrap wood, the piece eventually had two beetlekill pine shelfs.

I am an independent metalworker, carpenter and artist working in the field of product design through furniture. I specialize in the production of industrial looking furniture and steel work. Within that I specialize in the production of outdoor patio fire pits and fire tables. I also partner with my sister's business, Orchid Princess Floral, which results in many custom metalwork candelabras and chandeliers carefully designed for aesthetic lighting purposes. I use a lot of local products, Colorado beatlekill pine and repurposed materials are some of my favorites. I love product design and being creative in building custom concepts for custom purposes.
