A DESIGN PROCESS


Here we take an object from the 19th century and rework it into something for the 21st.
Original table has a turned walnut top with a faked rosewood finish. The pedestal is rosewood veneered. The base or feet are walnut with rosewood finish which is quite well done. we could go in any number of directions depending on criteria and come up with an equal number of results. I was after something more dynamic and personal, the model shows the result. The slide show shows some of the process.

Writing desk in black cherry. This is one I know I had sketches of, for at least ten years and now this is the only one I can find.


The file drawer is set for hanging files,either letter or legal size featuring rosewood rails.
