Getting close to finishing construction of a large testing facility. I had my handy GoPro with me and thought I would try it out and show a quick project walk-through. It is always fun to see a project come together!

This is amazing and mesmerizing to watch. Artist Seyit Uygur creates beautiful papers using this interesting and intricate technique. The patterns and colors are gorgeous. Check it out!

This cool experiment by artist Melanie Hoff shows what a little electricity can do to plywood. Well, maybe not a little -how about 15,000 volts. It’s mesmerizing to watch and interesting that the path of the electricity creates root-like burns. I can certainly see this as an accent wall piece in a project!

I wish I had something like this… wait, I do! It is fun to look back and see what was anticipated in our future. Not unlike Captain Kirk’s tricorder which evolved into our cell phones, the ‘office of tomorrow’ had some good guesses.
The interior is getting closer to being finished! Still a lot of exterior work left but Spring is around the corner…hopefully. Matt and I stopped by the project site to check in and filmed a bit of the progress. Take a look!
Thought I would share a walk to my office after a beautiful snowfall overnight.

Kudos to local craftsman Brian Grabski for creating this fun mechanism that opens a hidden drawer. I love this kind of stuff! This whole video was shot with an iPhone to get into the tight spaces. See more of Brian’s work at Designed & Made Custom Woodworking.

We are having fun with designing and building a custom sliding door for our Clients at the Bald Eagle Lake Residence. (Check out previous posts to see the progress on the home) This door consists of a steel frame that will be sandwiched by different colored pieces of glass. Should be cool when it is completed!

Ombuarchitecture put together this video (alphabetically) of well-known architects and a signature building project. I was disappointed that I was not listed under ‘H’…. Maybe next year!

We have been fortunate to have developed several projects for the Salvation Army. Here is a quick video update on the status of a bunkhouse building for one of their Northern Minnesota camps. What is unique about this project is that we needed to also have the building function as a storm shelter. We do get severe weather and possible tornado’s or high winds and this will be the safe haven for the entire camp. Take a look!
One man’s trash is truly another man’s treasure in this video by Evan Burns. ‘Collector’ Vince Hannemann spent years building his Cathedral of Junk in Austin, Texas. Beauty is truly in the eye of the beholder and I think it is beautiful and amazing. Take a look and let me know what you think.

We get to create some fun things! A Client asked us to design a mailbox to go along with the home we designed for them. This video shows a bit of that process. Take a look!
