Really nice piece by Michelle Hislop with photos by Jody Beck in: victoria.modernhomemag.ca/design-build/ Since we did this project, I have had the opportunity to go back a few time for some small projects like black boards, benches and sandwich boards using some of the same materials for the original build that I just had to hang on to! Great to work with www.freemanfabrication.ca on the metal work for the shelves and the lettering for the sandwich board.
Douglas Magazine - Profile of Redbrick
Rick Silva and I made a couple of custom Doug-fir tables for Redbrick's great room, from wood salvaged less than a block away in Victoria's Chinatown's Fan Tan Alley (yes, I still have some of that wood left!). One of them is a 'high top' designed for standing, and with a great view of the ping pong table. The big one is 10 feet long and 40 inches wide, with some crazy x legs and 1 1/4 " steel pipe across the middle. We built an 8 foot long bench to match, all white-washed to keep things bright in this very bright space.
Vancity - Community Partner
The good folks at Victoria's Mt. Tolmie Branch of Vancity asked me to attend the recent Creatively United for the Planet event as a Community Partner. Who doesn't like being an official poster boy? I had some art pieces in progress to work on, and brought along a table that I applied finish to during the day. Lots of great discussions and the Vancity crew was awesome!
