Loft Granite Or Marble And Cherry Wood Kitchen Table Dining Table Or Coffee Table
I worked with our design/fabrication company HAVA studios and Christine Julian Interiors, LLC for a Hobbs Taylor Loft residence to produce a custom matched stained cherry wood and granite kitchen/dining table in a contemporary version of a Mid Century Modern style, that is attached to the kitchen island in a beautiful loft space. At the other end of this stunning great room we fabricated a cherry build-in for a wine cooler and ice machine that is topped with granite. We can custom make a kitchen/dining table for your loft or other chic space and incorporate it into your current design or your new or remodeled space. Pricing is quoted based on custom requirements for each project. Ask away! Can we make…? I would willing to make a pretty big bet that I can design or fabricate a table or other custom feature for your space. If you would like me to collaborate with your architect or designer, it would be my privilege. Lead time will be dependent on current project load. Typically much of the custom work is around 8-12 weeks after deposit and approval from client.

As an artist, I found my love of objects at an early age. I was always drawing diagrams on napkins and discussing how things were made, like my father and grandfather. They owned and operated a display manufacturing business, so I was around design and material process from the beginning. My entrepreneurial career began around the age of seven, when I asked my dad to help me cut out some wood shapes on a small jigsaw, added color and sold them on the driveway. i was hooked.
After a year playing college football and throwing javelin in Indiana, I honed my art skills especially metal fabrication and casting finishing with a BFA in sculpture at the University of Kansas. During art school my brother Brian and I designed and made alternative clothing for the skate crowd. My wife and I began selling visual merchandising products to retailers, eventually garnering major clients all over the world. We also started HAVA studios to collaborate on creative projects which led to unique and very high end work. Many times I was providing the design and project management and not having the time to work on the making. I have had to carve out time to make art and also collaborated with my wife on award winning public art.
A few years ago, after chain saw carving a large 8' sculpture out of a huge spalted maple log. The wood cut away was so beautiful, so I carved my wife small piece and hung it on a silver chain. She received many comments and requests about the "wearable sculpture" pendant and I started making them for family and friends, and eventually galleries. Because splating is a natural process; like a finger print, there are no two alike. I expanded the hand carvings to earrings and rings, and then started making other objects including small freestanding sculptures and charcuterie/cheese serving boards, while filling custom requests for furniture and lighting as well as interior design.
My work is driven by my love of shape and form. I tend to be minimal in design. I work with whatever material is the best for the project but have an affinity for wood and metal. I also work in stone, acrylic, glass, resin, foam, and many other unique materials. I take commissions while also producing my original designs. My fine artwork is available upon request.
