About University Park
What we see in University Park houses
University Park is a small city with a long memory. Families stay, houses change hands inside the same circles, and a piece of furniture bought here is usually expected to outlast the people who bought it.
Brick traditional and Colonial Revival on tight, walkable lots, with a steady run of tear downs and rebuilds that keep the street face traditional while opening up the back of the house.
How our work fits
Building for a University Park room specifically
The same table is right in one house and wrong in the next. This is what we change, and why.
The rebuilt houses almost all end up with the same shape: a formal dining room at the front that gets used four times a year, and a kitchen and family room at the back where life actually happens. That means two tables, and they should relate to each other without matching. We usually build the formal piece in walnut and the everyday kitchen table in white oak, same joinery and same maker, and the house reads as one house.
Two table households
A formal dining piece and a harder wearing kitchen table, built to relate.
Legacy Projects
A pecan or oak off a family place, milled and built here. It stays in the family.
Bench seating for kitchen tables
Gets three kids down a side without three more chairs in the room.
Worth asking in University Park
Is there a tree on the property?
If one came down in a storm, or one is coming out for a pool or an addition, we would rather look at the log than hear it went to the chipper. Bring it to our mill and we saw it, dry it in our kiln, and build it into the piece for the house it grew beside. Send us a photo first and we will tell you if there is a table in it.
