New project

This comes out from no where, at least, we didn't think this day would come this soon.

We have a new project to work on---we are opening our new studio!

The beginning of this year B and I both discontinued our job contracts with the big corporations. We thought we were going to take some time off and to finish the  leftover projects in our hands. Maybe couple months later we would find jobs in China or Europe.....
Some nice friends heard we were taking a break from regular jobs, they past on some projects and we got busier and busier. Now, the little office place we share with other designers is not enough to us anymore, our shit slowly taking over other people's space. It is about time to get a serious working space for ourselves.

We are in a rush, we can not spend too much time on searching for the perfect spot. Fortunately we soon find a place has good location and reasonable rent. The only drawback is this place is completely empty...{ well...the rent is cheaper than others in the hood for a reason]

We get one month to fix this empty shell into a functional office.
Here is the place looks like now, we see what kind of magic we can play...
we want the first floor, and yes, it is actually a garage

Suppose be the main working area [ in the near future]
This will be our material lab and "get our hands dirty work room"

meeting room~~we love the old rusty window

Little kitchen and rest area for both us and the visitors

Since our home burned a hole in our pockets, we determined to spend as little as we can on this project. Nothing is cheaper than" do it yourself" when it comes to simple wood work. Tonight, we are going to visit B&Q, get some table saw, band saw, air staple!
No worry, we took model construction 1,2,3,4, we will try not to cut our fingers off or staple into our hands. The expensive tuition got to pay off some time some where.
