Another kitchen for the book. This one is in the home of architect Christine Matheu, who did the design work. Although I have images showing the main view from the front of the house, I have never had views of the maple side of the room, where the fridge and oven are. This is one of my all-time favorites because of the way Christine‘s design made a cramped, dark kitchen feel boundless, all without increasing the footprint. . . #kitchendesign #customcabinetry #certainlywood #modernistkitchen #filledwithlight #architectskitchen #architectinspiration The set of cherry built-ins from a few weeks ago, finished, with a pair of L.L. Bean-worthy canines completing the scene. . . #labsofinstagram #cherrybuiltin #customfurniture #customfurnituremaker #builtinfurniture #whitechapelhardware #windowseat #womanbuilt #womeninwoodworking #periodbuiltins
Another angle. Butterfly table in cherry and walnut. . . #moderndesign #customfurnituremaker Between applying coats of finish on the cherry table in the shop, I’m getting a welcome opportunity to work on the book about kitchens for Lost Art Press. Today I finally got some shots of our kitchen. . . #kitchendesignideas #kitchendesign #kitchenthink #thinkkitchen #freshdesign #americanhardwoods
This afternoon I got to see this table with its top for the first time. It was worth the wait! The design is a variation on that of the communion table in the church that commissioned me to build this one. Although the one I built is now in a cinder block-wall hallway, it holds an artful edition of the illuminated St. John’s Bible. And I was allowed to photograph it in the sanctuary before carrying it to that final destination. Bonus feature: the Canadian Brass band was practicing in the sanctuary. First time a delivery of mine has been made to literal fanfare. . . #moderndesign #midcenturymodern #midmodtable #butterflytable #frankmillerlumber #pacherry #joinery #joinerydesign #floatingtop #proportions #contextbaseddesign #womanmade First coat. Cherry and walnut table. Exercising my patience—I really can’t wait to see it with the 8-foot top. . . #archidetails #details #miterjoint #cherryfurniture #pacherry #modernistdesign #design #furnituredesign #customfurniture
