LITTLE BENCH(s)- steel, english sycamore, patina 48 X 16 X 15.5 $2000. A bench or a chair is an inanimate object that forces interaction among strangers. As one person approaches a park bench that is occupied by another individual, how does the situation resolve itself? Facilitating circumstances that blur the boundaries between public and private, this body of work is intended to make one aware of the bizarre factors that determine our behaviors in a group setting.

4 FREUNDT, Paul ALUMINUM BENCH Aluminum 38 X 20 X 16 $3600. COFFEE TABLE Patinated Steel 17 X 48 X 33 $3500. The search for pure form is a passion for me. By that, I mean the distillation of discovered form into it s minimal essence - -- what can and cannot be taken away without destroying the integrity of the form. I have sought to carry this philosophy, developed in my earlier career as a sculptor, over into furniture making. Sculptural presence, although important, must not override the functional requirements of the piece. DE MILO CHAIR Aluminum 48 X 30 X 22 $3200.

In my work, I am attempting to capture the essence of human movement (gesture) through minimal, abstract forms. While always interested in the human figure, I was inspired by a summer trip to Italy where I studied and sketched sculptures of the High Renaissance and Baroque period. I was particularly moved by the sculptures of Giambologna and Bernini. I was drawn to the tension created by their sculptural groups and the curves of the human figure. MACASSAR LOUNGE Beautifully stitched and upholstered leather supports are secured to stainless steel curved rails. The headrest is also upholstered in leather. The base is curved and tapered in Macassar Ebony, which is considered one of the most lustrous and beautiful of the ebony wood family and is notoriously difficult to bend.the seat can be positioned at an infinite number of angles for whether you are reading or simply relaxing. 29 x 20 x 59 $9600.

Each piece is custom made to fit your environmental needs Introducing dynamic sculptural lighting by Ed Pennebaker. Inspired by traditional Venetian masters, these Blownglass chandeliers are all one-of-a-kind. Working from a palette of approximately 16 colors, Ed creates custom lighting which ranges from vivid and vibrant to restrained elegance. The works also range in size and complexity, from pendants and sconces to groupings of fixtures as large as space and budget allow. Clusters, which are unlighted, purely sculptural creations are an excellent choice for tall, narrow spaces- like stairwells. Choose from a half-dozen element styles in varying sizes... lightsources from 35w (pendants), 50-60w for sconces, to one or more 100w bulbs (chandeliers). Other lightsource choices possible.

9 VANDYKE, Cameron THE CALDERA CHAIR Fiberglass 16 X 40 X 43 I am interested in beauty, durability, sustainability and, believe it or not, function. There is difficulty, however, in giving new shapes to old functions. This is what keeps me going; to find that perfect combination of beautiful shape made with honest structure, durability for real life, and comfort for the real body and real mind.

(bottom) OUTDOOR BENCH 1 - Sapele, 17 h x 21 w x 81 l $5700. I make furniture and furnishings because I find honesty in both the process and product. I respect and admire the tradition of making and the resulting utility of a well-made object. Craftsmanship is important and I strive to execute a finely crafted product. This practice of manipulating and transforming humble materials into something full of wonderful idiosyncrasies is rewarding and seductive. Each component within these pieces of furniture has its own identity. Sometimes they push away from their neighbors in a way that calls attention to themselves while other pieces subtly shift to balance the composition. The energy that this sort of construction captures help make these functional piece seductive from afar and more engaging the closer you get.
