For the past five years, I've immersed myself in the art and craft of furniture design and manufacturing. The joy of my work comes not just from crafting a functional piece but from the process and experimentation that accompanies each project. Recently, I envisioned creating a minimalist side table—sleek, elegant, yet uncomplicated. As I began prototyping, a multitude of questions emerged, primarily concerning the finish. Would it be oiled, stained, or painted? Being in this industry, I'm well aware that customers often seek a diverse array of finishes. Then, a groundbreaking idea illuminated my thoughts: What if I relinquished the power of finishing the piece to the customer? After all, the modern DIY movement has gained considerable traction, supported by places like Michaels and Home Depot, which thrive because they empower people to shape their own creations. This epiphany led me to a captivating conclusion: why not democratize the design process? Instead of prescribing the final aesthetic, we could provide the basic framework of a well-designed table and invite you to apply the finishing touches. Whether you choose to paint it, stain it, or adorn it with stickers—or even a combination of all three—the choice is yours. This approach transforms the table from a mere piece of furniture into a collaborative work of art. It's an item you didn't just purchase; it's something you've had a hand in crafting. It's not simply functional—it's uniquely yours. And that's what elevates this idea from interesting to genuinely exciting.
