Cherry Blossom Sparrows

The Renaissance New York Chelsea Hotel in New York City, New York is a beautiful space full of art and design. Located on 25th Street between 6th and 7th Avenue near Madison Square Park and the Flatiron Building. Also positioned a few blocks away from The High Line – a fabulous reclaimed 30-foot raised old rail line with art, views of the city and river. We were approached by the art firm, Indiewalls to take a design concept and make it a reality. The 2nd level has a theme of cherry blossoms that carpet the floors and transform the walls. Our sculpture of twenty-five metal-hammered birds gracefully fly in formation across the mezzanine draped with a bespoke cherry blossom design. If you find yourself in New York, we invite you to stay at this beautiful hotel in Chelsea with NYC’s largest concentration of art galleries, including blue chip galleries such as the renowned Gagosian Gallery, Pace Gallery and Paula Cooper Gallery. The boutique space is a short walk to the Empire State Building and from there a similar walk to Times Square, Broadway in Midtown. You will enjoy the amazing location and being surrounded by the excellent artwork in the hotel.

In the Aspens

In the hills above Winter Park is a beautiful home overlooking the aspens. HAVA studios was commissioned to design and make a spalted maple table with copper and bronze resin combining the two live organic edge pieces of wood to create the 102″L x 42″ live edge table top slab in the large open multi-use room surrounded by other arts and crafts. The table is supported by a custom blackened raw steel base. Our team was pleased to also provide the Mid Century modern Kennedy chair replications in solid walnut and black leather. While the table could have endless uses, it certainly could be for a family game night and puzzle time, for hot coco on a ski break in the winter, lavender lemonade after biking, or perhaps for entertaining guests at an elegant dinner party. Whatever its uses, this one-of-a-kind custom made table will be a heirloom treasured for generations.
