We are a husband and wife team who collaborate in the design and fabrication of fine furniture and objects. Our designs are driven by form, function, and a love of materials. We filter historical references through a contemporary lens, making objects to live with, and to use. We build one of a kind and commissioned pieces and welcome client participation in the design process.
