About The Farm Mechanic

"I'm looking through the lens of a graphic designer, not a formally trained carpenter. As a designer there are no limitations. The look and feel always comes first with me and the ingenuity of it coming together comes later."

My approach to furniture building is a lot like puzzle solving. Each of my industrial pipe and wood pieces is designed to meet a specific need or challenge. My imagination gets to work, reconfiguring and developing different solutions, until I figure out how to fit the right materials into the final design. My ingenuity takes common materials to make uncommon goods, weathering my own wood and incorporating piping in unexpected ways to set my work apart. Because my furniture is solution-focused rather than technique-driven, you will be extra glad I figured out for you how to make it work.
