New month, fresh ideas

Examples from two sides of my work, from the last day of January. I've been working on some fresh thinking about approaches to designing rooms, primarily kitchens, with more than one style of cabinetry. My manufacturing partner, Premier Custom-Built Cabinetry, Inc., and I are excited about the prospect of bringing these ideas to the design community and the market. I don't always end a work day feeling a sense of accomplishment, but I felt pretty good when I hit the "render" button in AutoCAD to let the computer produce this six hour rendering of one of my concept kitchens. I was able to really relax and enjoy doing my sketchbook entry when I went downstairs for the night. Although I am often racked with self doubt, the combination of doing art and design, both as serious pursuits, is sometimes immensely rewarding to me.
