Traditional styled wall units for living and dining areas. The living room was a special challenge as the owner did not want the lengthy mess that would have been required to remove the existing shelving units (the far left and right ends, so we changed the shelf configuration and added moldings and glass doors for display to blend in with the newly built middle section.

Making the most of a small home office near Park Square. Had to make patterns for all the floating shelves and countertops because corners are never square and walls are never flat!
Printer pullout so you don’t have to look at the printer all the time.

Hide an ugly HVAC unit with a nicely designed cabinet. This will get a stone top that will also cover the window sill.

Very happy to be in this space!

Over the next few weeks we'll share the FACES & PLACES of Humphreys Street Studios -- portraits of the artists that make up our unique, diverse, collaborative community. We begin with Gary Barcus of G.B. Woodworking, who’s designed/crafted fine furniture & cabinetwork since 1975. When asked what he’ll do should HSS workspaces be sold he answers “I’m at a loss. It’s so hard for a small woodworking shop to find space. The last guy had to move to Woonsocket, Rhode Island. It’s so great to be right here, in the thick of things, close to everything & surrounded by artists. The vibe of this place is so creative & artistic.” Learn more about Gary at http://gbwoodworking.com/.
