Modern ash side table or one night stand in solid White Ash. Designed for the right-hand side of the bed. Featuring two drawers above a single door. The grain was carefully planned to fall continuously across the drawer and door faces. The table conceived in the French modernist style of the 1940’s. The top is cantilevered on a hidden steel support embedded into vertical support on the right-hand side. The design for the table was inspired by two important early 20c Architects, Pierre Chareau from France and Eileen Gray an Irish designer who spent most of her life working in France. The table dimensions are 24″width x 16″ deep x 29″ height.
This Mid-Century modern bookcase is handmade in African Mahogany, American Walnut, and Teak. Dimensions 60″ width x 18″ depth x 107″ H. The sliding door panels are painted in English Farrow & Ball emulsion. The colours that were selected by the client feature India Yellow #66 and Blazer #212.
The design for the cabinet was inspired by three important mid-century designers. The staggered vertical shelf dividers are drawn from unique bookcases created by the French architect and designer Charlotte Perriand. The colored sliding door panels were inspired by sideboards designed by the Danish furniture designer Finn Juhl. The half round molding profiles with their sculptured mitered joints are reminiscent of T H Robsjohn Gibbings work for the Widdicomb Furniture Company in the early 1960’s. Dimensions: Height 108″ x Width 60″ x Depth 20″

This beautifully crafted Neo-Classic entry door is made in solid Quarter Sawn White Oak. The doorcase is 2 3/8″ thick and fitted with six (6) raised panel assemblies on the exterior and six (6) on the interior. The double panel construction is to allow the interior and exterior of the door panel assemblies to expand and contract at different rates as the temperature varies in each environment.
The door frame is traditional mortise and tenon construction and assembled using West System Epoxy. The center section of the raised panels were resawn then booked matched to create a dynamic pattern and are surrounded by two sets of classical moldings. The door was finished using natural MinWax stain followed by a thinned down epoxy primer and top coated with Epifanes Varnish.
Custom Breakfront Cabinet in the center was handmade to match a pair of antique Apothecary cabinets from the early 19c. Originally the antique cabinets were used Pharmacy in Traverse City, Michigan. Length 24′ x 9′ in Height. The center cabinet handmade in Red Oak features four glass doors in the top section. The arched rail above the widescreen television was developed from similar but smaller rail in the far left antique cabinet. The lower section features sliding doors on custom hardware that match the vintage cases. The antique cabinets were retrofitted with Douglas Fir beadboard backs along with the new cabinet. The pair of antique cabinets before restoration is shown below.
