FURNITURE

These are custom sized pieces of furniture I made in my apartment, using reclaimed wood from construction sites, as well as new wood, and Simpson strong ties to put them together(applications I've learned working in construction), and casters. Everything was cut, hand-distressed, sanded, stained/painted, and assembled in the living room of my apartment between October 2014 and October 2015...

i placed these three bookshelves together to form walls, and create separation between the electronic drum kit in the dining room, and the living room/kitchen
