Retro Table Lamp

My name is Jarrett Maxwell and I am the artist, designer, and craftsman behind Geometric Innovations LLC. I strive to create innovative designs that blur the lines between art and furniture while maintaining a firm grasp on both form and function.

Whether playing with Legos as a child or constructing tree houses in the back woods as a teenager, I have always been a builder. I am driven by an innate fascination and need to take basic elements and combine them to create larger structures. As a self-taught woodworker, I arrived at my artistic pursuit quite unintentionally. My beginnings as a general carpentry laborer slowly morphed into personal expression as I felt an ever deepening desire to explore design.

My design inspiration, often drawn from nature or architecture, always seems to be informed by deceptively simple geometry. I love the interplay between masculine angles and feminine curves and find great beauty in forms where the details are subjugated to the overall architecture of the piece. For me, the architecture is always the number one concern.

I am continually looking for inventive ways to use and structure my materials that push me to the boundaries of my technical abilities. The greatest joy in my creative endeavor is to envision something in the mind just outside the realm of what seems possible and then labor to flesh it out into a tangible 3-dimensional reality. My curiosity grows with each new piece and I am recognizing an increasing desire to incorporate additional materials beyond wood into my future work.

Each piece I make is handmade and produced as a one-off item or made as part of a limited production batch, however I can recreate a piece upon request. Upon completion, each item I create is signed and dated. I welcome collaboration with my clients to produce something truly unique for their living space.

Rest assured that the work purchased from me will be of the highest quality, possessing a transcendent design sensibility, and bringing beauty to your home and the homes of your descendants for generations to come.
