nFORMAL design

Well...it's sort of an end to an era. Erik and I both moved on to separate firms, so if you need architecture done, reach out to us and we'll be happy send you to one of the two firms (whichever one would be the right fit).

On another note, I will continue to take furniture commissions under the nFORMAL design name, but will now be in the Boulder, Colorado area. Change is good...and who knows what the future holds.

Finally got access to some professional photos of this remodel. The only photo that wasn't part of the set was the photo of the wall mounted toilet.

Hey folks...we are still keeping busy--too busy for Facebook that is! Anyway, just wanted to let you know that we have some sweet posts coming soon. First, we finished a HUGE (weight-wise) dining room table that is 42"x89" made out of walnut, laser cut (and powder coated) steel and concrete. For the same client, we have a media console that is 8-1/2 feet long out of laser cut steel, concrete, maple ply (for a reason) and Tiikeri panel.

I promised new pics. It's been like 3 months, but here they are. Actually, it's a link to the website. I want to thank Heather Noe for doing all of the programming. If anyone needs a UX person, let me know. She does a great job.

So, just an FYI...we haven't had professional pics taken of the project, but there are some new images of the kitchen/living and renderings of the master bath. At the time, the master bath had the fill nozzle actually resting on the tub (installed too low). Contractor was fired (kinda) and they found someone to do it the right way. Hope you enjoy!

So, it's been over a year since we posted on here. Just letting everyone know we are still going. We are terrible at social media (don't have the time). There have been a lot of projects finished and changes to nFORMAL in that time. We will have new pics posted soon. Sorry for the long delay, but we really don't keep up with this...even though we probably should.

Here's one last image from the kitchen we forgot to include that we think shows a good view of the backsplash!

As promised, here is what the bathroom will look like...

Apologies again for the update delay, but we've been working really hard on getting the actual built part of this condo remodel rolling! Here are some renderings of the kitchen portion to wet your appetite in the meantime. Bathroom images coming soon!

So...as you all know, we are absolutely TERRIBLE at updating social media. We are small and don't have enough hours in the day to update this with words of wisdom etc.

However, we ARE proud to announce a new, mobile/tablet-friendly website. It still has some tweaks needed, but an actual UX designer did it for us. Clean and simple...the way we like things.

More news on the front...Erik and Paul worked with Ed Baldoni of Z Counter Forms to pour a concrete counter for the Kitchen Crashers television series. We'll let everyone know before it airs.
