Able + Baker Design: What I did on my Winter Vacation

http://ableandbakerdesign.blogspot.com/2012/01/what-i-did-on-my-winter-vacation.html

Sunday, January 8, 2012. What I did on my Winter Vacation. My sister moved to Saint Helena last year. We managed to get up there for a couple of weekends in December. The first weekend I was up there my niece, Lilli, started telling me about a project she had to do. She was studying the Egyptians. And had to do some kind of presentation about something she had learned. The one we're working on in these pictures is for the upper class. We built another, smaller one that represented the regular folk. View ...

Able + Baker Design: Tree hugger

http://ableandbakerdesign.blogspot.com/2012/01/tree-hugger.html

Sunday, January 22, 2012. It's been a fairly uneventful week. So I thought I'd just post a couple of designs from the past year. Here's another version of my "Garden Bench", the combination bench and planter. The GARDEN BENCH II. The previous version has a CMU base. While this base is a custom cast concrete. More original, but of course more work, and therefore more time consuming and more expensive. I suppose the key word is "more". I should've put plants in this rendering. A better name to come). I dro...

Able + Baker Design: August 2011

http://ableandbakerdesign.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html

Tuesday, August 23, 2011. I think very deeply. I make so much stuff.you have know idea. If I live to be 500 I won't have enough time to bust out all of my ideas. It's frustrating. In the meantime, I'll keep k. Nocking out the simple ones. Made from salvaged redwood, and some standard 16"x16" CMU pilaster blocks. Pretty comfy, plus plants. And what could be greener than a plant? I've eaten a lot of Santa Cruz burritos. Sunday, August 7, 2011. Here's a recent project. Bar fluorescent light set up. Where To...

Able + Baker Design: December 2010

http://ableandbakerdesign.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html

Monday, December 27, 2010. You think you know somebody. Last night I was talking with my Aunt Donna. She's always been one of my favorite people. For much of my childhood she lived on a series of sail boats in Mission Bay, San Diego, and I loved spending summers there. I used to get sea sick, but I might be able to sail because of her. She's retired from nursing now, living in Fresno, caring for my Grandma (another one of my favorite people). My website, Haiti-orphanage.org. You can donate here. I just d...

Able + Baker Design: July 2011

http://ableandbakerdesign.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html

Friday, July 15, 2011. The Treehouse in Progress. In my "spare" time, I'm usually building something. This past winter my Father-in-law told me he wanted to build a treehouse "for the little guys", referring to my 3 nephews, David, Richard, and Luke. He can never get high enough on his property to see far enough across the valley, and it really is a good view. And besides that, who wouldn't want a treehouse? Sunday, July 3, 2011. Architectural Foundation and Guitars. Last Friday evening we had the honor ...

Able + Baker Design: March 2011

http://ableandbakerdesign.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 27, 2011. Vanity. You probly think this blog is about you. I tried a lot of different vanity designs for this job, a classic Mid-Century Modern home. The client wanted a vanity that reminded them of a piece of Mid-Century Modern furniture, like a table or desk. My initial designs were heavily influenced by existing pieces, but as I continued to shape the vanity, my own style began to show. Version 6.1 (the numbers aren't totally sequential). Version 1.4 from the front. Show me some more leg".
