Library/Kitchen & Bedroom
Working at King Cabinetry fabricators, I produced the shop drawings as well as helped the team fabricate the mill work for this Koenig Eisenberg Architects & MontesBuild Interiors project in Tribeca. The seemingly simple layout of continuous bookshelves led to complicated knock-down techniques in order to get items in the minuscule elevator.

Morris Arboretum Hoops
As part of a team of Vermont timber framers and craftspeople in conjunction with Forever Young Treehouses , I worked on fabricating the elements to a wheelchair accessible tree house complex at the Morris Arboretum outside Philadelphia, PA. The hoop structure consisted of laminated White Oak strips epoxied together, a process that was quite labor intensive and posed multiple technical challenges.

Furniture
Japanese Chair & Table
The Japanese chair, designed by my mentor Stephen Piscuskas at York Street Studio in Bantam, CT, was a study in Japanese joinery to create a simple, lightweight, harmonious piece. I designed the table to accompany the 2 chairs given to me when I returned to NYC.
