2019 | 'BLEND TABLE'
A combination of our two favorite materials, walnut and steel; the blend table legs are floating from its solid top with mitered corners and mortise and tenon joinery between the two mediums. Music by Tactik (soundcloud.com/tactileproduction).
2017 | 'Crafting Sakamoto'
From lumberyard to installation of our process on the original Sakamoto dining table. Video by long-time friend, and mentor Tim Peare, who we're now lucky enough to have as part of our building crew!
Fall 2016 | The Insignia Table
Designed specifically for a brand new renovated condo with limited dining room space. The concept for the 'Insignia' table was motivated by an interest in sleek, minimalist-modern design, with inspiration that arose from an admiration for Nakashima-style trestle bases. With our own 'Mez Works' theme, we used dimensional walnut paired with steel for the base treated with a black-magic patina and clear-coat finish for an industrial element, and added a steel strip through the center of the table to trace our 'Zeeva' series tables. The leaf mechanisms are simple drop leaf supports that are solidly built to eliminate sagging, and are fully stable and sturdy. They lock in place automatically when raised, and are simple and quick to release.

2013 | Tabletop Leg Channels
The process of the leg channels that every table with a steel base receives. 1/4" channels are routed in using templates per base, leaving 1/8" on each side of the steel for wood movement. Brass inserts are then epoxied into the wood for a strong connection, and ease of assembly.
