Hewing the wood down to its final shape and finessing with a hand grinder resulted in this purely handmade creation.

We crafted these bar stools in reclaimed teak. Finding the sleek lines of the graceful curved backrest and sculpted seat so appealing, I couldn't resist taking these photos as I say goodbye to them before sending them off for delivery this morning.

Old Goan houses are a treasure trove with the ancient beams, shutters and doors being the icing on the cake for me. They come in a variety of species - jackfruit, teak, coconut and in this case, dense indigenous 'matti'. It was a delight to craft this bathroom vanity with wood reclaimed from the same old house it now inhabits.

We made a lattice framework for the doors of this shoe cabinet to allow for airflow. It was fashioned by routing uniform grooves into strips of wood offcuts to form a grid.
I thought highlighting the sleek door pulls in a contrasting darker wood, would add an elegant touch.

With tons of potential in waste wood, I wanted to put some large offcuts to better use. After laying them out in a symmetrical geometric pattern and considering their size, I thought they would make a pleasing decorative facade for a door. Here they are - sustainably transformed into a functional creation.

I salvaged the last leg from a table that was literally on its last leg, and added a support structure with the intention of repurposing it into a peg table. Here are 2 options for the tabletop :-

It's the seat of this 3 legged bar stool that takes centre stage. Chamfered at 45° for an elegant profile with an ergonomic contour for its scooped seat, it features exposed joinery in a contrasting lighter wood as a decorative element. Quite an aesthetically appealing perch, whaddya say?
