Exciting new project

It's been a bit of a mad week. Lot's on as always.

For the past week Jas has been over at Homeblown, helping Tris with an exciting new project that he is involved in for furniture designer, John Miller.

John has designed a fantastic dining table called the 'shapers table', which made from polyurethene foam, laminated, glossed and polished, similar to the way you would do a surfboard with a few exceptions.

Scale wise, it was quite a bit bigger than anything Jason has laminated before and is the first piece of furniture he has been asked to do.  It's nice to do a variety of things and it's been really exciting to be involved in this type of design.



The final finished product is very impressive as you can see.

Surf Art


Roaming the net, as you do and came across the work of Newquay artist Melanie McDonald, who's work I have been admiring and now added to my aspiration list.

Although she now lives in Brittany, it is clear in her work that she is still very much inspired by life along the Cornish Coast.
