The Bench (144"x22"x18") was inspired by a contemporary take on mid-century design while hinting at both the Shaker and Japanese aesthetics. The bench is built with Walnut and Padauk inlay. It is constructed using mortise and tenon joinery and will last for generations. The finish is a lacquer/ urethane.

Founded in 2011, Mahlon Huston Projects is a small, independent wood design studio with a supreme focus on making well-engineered, highly crafted furniture. At the end of the day our objective is simple: to produce outstanding designs engineered to last generations.
Mahlon received his Masters of Fine Arts from Alfred University in the spring of 2011. While in graduate school, his research as a sculptor and eventual thesis work focused on the way architecture produces a particular lexicon in the landscape. He surmised that this lexicon distinctly defines one’s identity, much in the way a dialect defines a region.
Upon completing graduate school, Mahlon turned his focus toward furniture design. His design practice is very much rooted in his graduate research. Mahlon chooses to produce pieces of furniture by which people want to be surrounded in order to buttress each individual’s sense of self. His designs are simultaneously serious, fun, reserved and playful.
