I designed and fabricated a set of wall-washing exterior sconces that use the simplicity of a length of steel C-channel combined with a single LED standard-base bulb. The low humidity of the Arizona high desert will allow the raw steel to slowly develop a patina over time at this beautiful new home in Prescott, Arizona.

Pallet Wall Timelapse
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.
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
