....last photo of the MT1 and MT2 at the end of a great 4 days at WantedDedign. This photo is not reflective of the mad pandemonium taking place right now all around us during move-out as we wait for our movers.

Great to see you two @pafessal and @sashachertok tonight and catch up. Missing Cameron in this one, and looking forward to seeing you two in Mexico with @oarystys soon!

Many thanks to @dawnf.idp and the folks at @vitra for the assist with our favorite chair! We love this chair for its playful yet direct qualities + comfort. We use it in our office as it complements our tables in the best way. Having it at WantedDesign has helped create a sense of context and scale to our M-Serie MT1 office table.

We are thrilled to be at this year’s WantedDesign. You can find our MT1 table (all 144 inches!) at the Launchpad part of the show.

Powder coating is a relatively environmentally friendly or, pardon the pun “green” coating applied to steel. In this case, the new M-Serie MT2 table is sporting a standard RAL May Green.

Along with the technical drawings, renderings, and specifications, sketching and model making are always a part of our design process. In this case, the value in sketching is to hash out ideas with fluidity, impulse, and deliberation - quickly. This process connects the hand and mind in the most direct way in order to explore ideas. .

Nice morning light during our site visit to this small backyard studio that has been completed for some time and has been patiently waiting; acting as storage space for the main house renovation. Hard to believe this was a fire pit. We are starting to see interiors and main house exterior coming together. Light at the end of the proverbial construction tunnel is visible.
