One of the things that's hard to do is define oneself as a craftsman, artist, designer, etc... and with multiple projects afoot (some personal, some commercial), it's hard to draw lines. The enterprise, as it is, started with the renovation of our own Eichler-built house which begat RedneckModern. It didn't take too long to find folks who needed things that I could do and their projects became my projects... then, the things I built for myself became things that others wanted to buy. The later notion created NorCalMod.
Over the past few years, in addition to designing and making furniture, I've also been restoring it. From simple cosmetic fixes to more structural bits, it's been something to keep the workshop dusty... so much that it now deserves it's own category and soft launch.
Hey, folks, I'm restoring old furniture. Hit me up!
Seriously, there's probably three times as many pieces that I've not documented, but I'll detail the ones I have documented here. Over the years, I've developed a few decent techniques specifically to bring new life back to original Eames/Herman Miller chairs — both fiberglass and DCMs and LCWs.
So, watch for a few new posts that I've carried over from RedneckModern as their more proper home is here at NorCalMod.
