MICHAEL DOUGLAS TOO

Creating within the confines offered by waste materials can be an incredibly difficult dance, but hey, MDT loves to dance. His process is pretty simple: no petroleum products, no parents, no rules; with ample time for staring off into space for 30 minutes (or more). His objective is equally as simple: to create long lasting furniture pieces that don’t lend themselves to any momentary styles or trends; small batch & one-of-a-kind. He likes jeans, loud music and francesinhas.
