As we mentioned in an earlier post, we're coming out of a very busy but quite productive period with design projects. It wasn't until Labor Day weekend that we were able to really come up for air, and now we're having a hard time letting go of summer. She seemed to have slipped right past us when we weren't looking. But this last weekend got us wound up again on the blog front when we headed up to Kingston, New York for a studio tour of Blackcreek Mercantile & Trading Co.We first discovered BCMT last November and have been following them closely ever since. Founded by Joshua Vogel, one of the original co-founders of NYC based furniture company BDDW, this impressive workshop is producing one of a kind, sculptural woodturnings, pieces of limited edition furniture and meaningful small products. The works are absolutely stunning and we finally got our hands on one of their pieces a few weeks ago (in fact...see the "cross" piece in the first photo...that's a limited edition puzzle and it's OURS!)
We had a great day driving around Kingston and then getting a chance to visit with Josh and his lovely girlfriend Kelly. They were such gracious hosts and we left their shop feeling incredibly inspired and excited about incorporating their work into our projects. And if that weren't enough, this morning our inbox had the most beautifully done short film featuring Josh talking about his craft. Produced by The Scout (great resource if you don't know about them), the film is both artful and insightful and a definite must-see. You should check it out below and then when you have a minute, take a look at the new Anthology Magazine to see Josh and Kelly's charming house. Keep your eye on these two...they're doing big things when it comes to the art of woodworking!
