furniture + objects
studio furniture Paul enjoys collaborating with clients to create one-of-a-kind, free-standing and built-in furniture. Often, his designs include details that hold personal meaning for the commissioner (a map of the Battle of Shilo etched on the glass of a cabinet to house a client's collection of Civil War books) or incorporate the surrounding environment (side rails of a headboard that incorporate a design detail from the client's window handles). Paul also offers a selection of limited-production pieces. Most of the materials used in his furniture are reclaimed or come from sustainable sources; all of the materials and finishes are non-toxic.
objects, furnishings & architectural details From decorative header panels for a kitchen and hand-made register covers to a 9' bathroom mirror etched with the Temple of Artemis and a faux-stone triptych of the excavation site at Ephesus, Paul's designs personalize environments while bringing coherence to the overall aesthetic. Custom design also, in one client's words, "raises the bar" of a home's look and feel.
interior design + consulting
Utilizing his extensive knowledge of "green" building materials, Paul helps bring to life highly functional and personal environments through design, consulting, specifying materials, and project management. Paul is experienced working with architects, general contractors, sub-contractors and other designers.
finishes
Paul specializes in subtle, multi-layered antique finishes and patinas. His unique paint finishes have been applied to walls, floor tiles, furniture ˜ even register covers. Because he uses organic, non-toxic finishes, Paul is able to work with people who have chemical sensitivities.
graphics + specialty signage + displays
With over 15 years of experience designing and fabricating specialty signage, graphics and displays, Paul is skilled in creating complete graphic packages or one-of-a-kind sculptural pieces. He has worked with clients ranging from "mom & pop" stores to multi-national corporations.
