Abueg-Morris Architects hired me to create a customized layering of colors and distress chairs for the tiny sandwich shop, Bun Mee, on Filmore St in SF. They also hired me to create 2 found-object style chandeliers. Working with the bicycle theme idea I found two old bike wheels and stripped them of their tires and shaft parts to use as the support base. I then created individual pendalouge "prisms" by collaging pages from a Vietnamese language book found at Urban Ore in Berkeley CA.

Sculptural fabric panels designed to dampen the sound in a tall narrow restaurant space. I cut and stapled each "petal" shape made from wool and silk fabrics covering the sound panels with a more visually pleasing surface.

I've solved a variety of aesthetic problems for a private home owner using simple materials, color theory and craftsmanship. I updated the wrot iron sconces with a matte gray paint and found ceramic candle sleeves and gorgeous silk thread wrapped bulbs. I brought in an earthy gray-green color to the sunlight saturated dining room to help cool the space down. I used an embossed pearlized paper to create a one of a kind art installation on the ceiling of repeating forms. I padded out the back of the built-in tea room cabinet with a silk blend fabric to help the coveted objects within pop. I used an energizing sunny yellow for the tiny tea room. The living room is painted with a soft pale blue and a deeper gray blue to accent the chimney. I also worked with the client to create a gallery of favorite family photographs, using a mix of rustic wooden frames and silver painted wood frames. I also hired master carpenter, Tim Pacaldo, to refinish all the damaged and sun-bleached wood work in the primary rooms.
