Coffee Table - These are early sketches and thumbnails for the coffee table concept. It first started out as an idea to store my turntables and records but I adapted it for more of a pedestrian use.
Coffee Table - Working out some of the details in the table as well as the construction of the legs/base.
Coffee Table - I've had this design for a table in my head since college. It would be made from a dark stained wood and frosted glass. As you separate the two pieces of glass on top, a shelf from the inside raises to become another platform for the table. There are also two drawers on the bottom and two shelves on the side.
Coffee Table - A slightly more refined look to the original table with updated materials.
Coffee Table - A look into the functional aspects and features of this unique coffee table. A hidden shelf rises from the middle as the glass is separated. To the right is a 3/4 view of the table in full form and btm. right depicts one of the two drawers open.
Primitive Altar Table - The first in a new line of furniture built on a tubular frame. The great thing about this particular design is that there is little assembly and no seams where the wood was pressure fitted. Inside the top of the frame is a steel insert that supports the piece as well as lifts the top drawers giving it the illusion of floating. Running across is a bronze detail that gives an overall look of one continuous drawer when in fact there are five.
Primitive Altar Table - Front view, here you can see the small inserts that sit on the steel frame inside lift the entire top of the table. A very clean look to an elegant piece of furniture.
Primitive Altar Table - A detailed shot of the drawer, cut at an angle towards the bottom, each one can be easily pulled out without disturbing the line in the piece.
Primitive Low Cabinet - Different design using the same type of frame, this cabinet could be used more for home entertainment purposes. Still incorporating a bronze detail for the handle as well as the support in the middle of this very wide piece helps add to the collective feeling for this clean line of furniture.

Primitive Large Table - Based off of Primitives conference table, it was modified to be used as a large dining table.
Primitive Complete set demi lune
Primitive Large table w/ Demi Lune - We presented this particular idea with two options; one using demi lunes at the ends and the other a more traditional rectangular end table. The idea being for both types that when not in use with the large table, they could be used around the house, say flanking the sides of a fireplace or anywhere lacking detail.
Primitive Demi Lune end table - The challenge with the Demi lune end table was to get the appropriate balance of proportion and size compared to the main table.
Primitive Large table w/ rectangular end - Same piece with the rectangular end tables.
Primitive Buffet_01 - Taking some elements off the classic Chinese buffet, this custom piece was designed with modern amenities, while still creating an elegant look.
