Another element of the Schultz house takes shape – a pallet wood wall for the dining room. I love wood – especially wood with such variety and unique rough character as pallet wood. I’ve started parting out pallets in advance, and storing the wood in a dry storage locker. That meant this was a quick install – only offsite work was ripping the boards to four different widths on the table saw.

Orb Lamps for Overland Journal
In another phase of Anastasis’ designs at the Overland Journal headquarters, I installed three globe-like pendants created from barrel hoops. We found three very cool pulleys and used a combination of rope and chain to hang them from the ceiling. Finished off with vintage cloth-covered twist cord and three different “edison” bulbs from Brooklyn Bulb Co.
Werklight Fixtures
These bare-bones hanging fixtures were created specially for Revised in downtown Prescott, Arizona, repurposing basic exterior lampholders that the previous tenant left behind. These fixtures accept any standard bulb, but these are outfitted with LED daylight-temperature floodlights for true color rendering over the work table where CeCe Caldwell’s paints and techniques are demonstrated in the shop.
I will be making some variants of these for sale in Revised, or contact me for purchase info.
Box Shelves
I had the idea to create box shelves as a more open, modern alternative for my client who didn’t want upper cabinets in her very industrial kitchen. The kitchen walls are tiled from the counter up to the ceiling, so the open backs of the boxes allow this subway tile to be seen. These irregularly sized boxes are a fusion of square steel tube and reclaimed wood.
Dark wax was used to create a rich tone on the outside surfaces, which contrasts with the freshly-sawn interior surfaces which are illuminated by LED ribbon. Though labor intensive, these shelves pack a visual punch that’s hard to beat.
This old darkroom timer makes a great oversized kitchen timer
Overland Journal Target Wall
I feel quite privileged to continue to refine the built environment for Overland International and their fantastic publication, Overland Journal.
Stephanie Brady of Overland brought me in last year to construct and design several indoor and outdoor elements that she had been dreaming up. She is a skilled “curator” of her desired look and feel for their office, based right here in Prescott, Arizona. How cool is that?
As a long-time 4×4 guy myself, and a photographer and outdoors enthusiast, I can’t think of too many places to work that would be sweeter than Overland International. They travel to remote corners of the world, play with the greatest off-road equipment, and then document it all through photography and film. Their high-bay multi-function office is really a garage with shiny toys like a G-Wagen and a Land Rover right next to the conference table, as well as numerous motorcycles including some iconic Urals. Oh yeah, and there’s a whole tree inside (which I helped install.)
The first project was a desk-height table created from broad steel bar and reclaimed glu-lam beam. Recently I made a companion table in the same spirit, this time a coffee-table height version for their work-lounge area.
The target wall is a eye-catch as soon as you step inside. Bright aluminum CNC letters form the logo against the dark background, with the signature “map scale” bar down the middle, with alternating polished and brushed sections. The target wall appears to float in front of the back wall, with LED ribbon utilized for even greater visual impact.

Revive Portable Sign
Movable sign post for the Revive Worship Center at FBC Prescott in Arizona. Mechanical cable-stayed steel crossbar holds up a locally-sourced ponderosa pine slab with lettering in charcoal and sealed with spar urethane. Heavy counterweighted base made of a cast concrete ballast caged in mild steel and allowed to rust naturally.
