The Story behind the Jetsons Dining Chair:
The Jetsons Dining Chair is my ode to the futurism of the 1960s, as seen in the Jetsons cartoon strip of that era. So, a bit of Mid-Century Modernism plus swooping curves. For me, typical dining chairs often struggle to find elegant ways to provide support for the seat and the back rest. It usually seems like there's too much stuff back there. The long back leg that rises plant-like, together with the sturdy member that supports the back rest, is my answer here. A real bonus with the Jetsons dining chair is the small flex you get from leaning against the back rest. To avoid any instability associated with a three-legged chair, I made the front legs project out to the side. The result is a seat platform stable enough to tap dance on, although I haven't tried that yet.
The seat front is 17.5 inches high. The two woods used are walnut and ash. The curved pieces are real wood, the result of an industrial process that involves laminations and glue. The main joinery is literally nuts and bolts, with bolt heads recessed and concealed under wooden plugs which I've chosen to accentuate with contrasting wood.

Round 44-Inch Glass-Top Table with Wood Base
The Chiral T531-44 builds on the ideas of the earlier T351. It is a glass-top table on a sculptural solid-wood base of five legs leaning into, and past, each other. Each leg has a triangular cross-section and tapers at the ends.
- 44" diameter top
- 29" high
- The 1/2" tempered glass top has a beveled edge and is secured to the base
- The two-tone base is in walnut and maple
- In the event a piece needs to be made to order, please allow up to 10 weeks for delivery. Feel free to inquire prior to purchasing.
- All sales are final - no refunds
- Free White Glove delivery to the 48 contiguous states and Washington D.C.
The Story behind the Chiral T531-44 Table
The Chiral T531 further develops the geometry of joining multiple angled legs which was first explored in the T351 series. The challenge of the Chiral T531 was to find a way to assemble a skewed bundle of five legs. The solution was to add spacers between the legs - in the T531 these show up as maple cylinders between the walnut legs.
In the product name, "T" stands for table, "5" for the number of legs, "3" for triangular cross section, "1" for the circular top, and "44" for the diameter of the top.

The Story behind the Chiral K531-40 Table
The Chiral K531 further develops the geometry of joining multiple angled legs which was first explored in the T351 series, and brings it down to coffee table dimensions. The challenge of the Chiral K531 was to find a way to assemble a skewed bundle of five legs. The solution was to add spacers between the legs - in the K531 these show up as maple cylinders between the walnut legs.
In the product name, "K" stands for coffee table, "5" for the number of legs, "3" for triangular cross section, "1" for the circular top, and "40" for the diameter of the top.

The story behind Floe:
A few years ago James needed a low-profile bookcase to fit under a pair of tall windows. He wanted to use as little material as possible for the upright members, while still providing strength, and realized this meant orienting the vertical pieces at 90 degrees to each other. And minimizing material meant that the vertical pieces would be narrower at the top and bottom and fatter in the middle. It turns out that the visual result of these engineering constraints is pleasing to the eye. That first bookcase needed to be so short that there was no room for legs. These got added in later iterations.
