I designed and built this entire  black walnut desk for a client using a pair of 8/4 slabs from a tree that came down a few miles from my home. The inspiration for the design was a blend of Greene & Greene and George Nakashima.

1. I didn't make it.
2. It's not sitting in my front hallway.
I love the design and the wood is amazing. Great job and thanks for sharing.
