Services
Furniture and art pieces are finished with a zero-VOC oil wax finish. Food safe pieces are finished with FDA food grade mineral oil and natural beeswax. All epoxy used in Chiqui's work is FDA approved food safe. Finally, every effort will be taken to utilize energy efficient materials, use recycled goods, and source materials locally and from other small businesses.
Consultation
Free 30-minute consultation to discuss your ideas, inspiration and budget for any custom project. A consultation will be conducted prior to designing any piece or space.
Custom Live Edge Butcher Block
Custom butcher blocks are made with local live edge wood. Your color choice of epoxy resin will be used to fill in any knots or holes. Depending on the size of the knot, we can encase moss, small rocks, or something similar to create a 3D look. Each butcher block can be personalized with juice grooves, handles, feet and a wood burned design/text.
Please allow at least three weeks for production time.
Custom Tables
Made with local live edge and your choice of leg material and design. The table top can range from solid wood to a wood/epoxy river to encasing select items in epoxy resin.
Please allow at least six weeks for production time.
Custom Ocean Epoxy Resin
Whether it be a project that Chiqui is working on or a existing slab that you own, we can add ocean waves using epoxy resin. It is important to note that every ocean pour will vary in texture and spatial distribution. Multiple colors can be chosen for your pour. Please note that any pre-owned slab must be inspected before a determination can be made as to if an ocean pour is feasible.
Please allow at least three weeks for production time.
Custom Wood Burning
Custom wood burning adds a personalized touch to a new or existing product. I can wood burn a message or image into your project in progress with Chiqui or into an existing piece of wood you already own. Please note that any pre=owned slab must be inspected before a determination can be made as to if custom wood burning is feasible.
Custom Floating Display
Floating shelves and displays will be made with local live edge, knots and cracks filled with epoxy and optional to wood burn text or a image into the shelf. Your choice of mounting brackets will be selected. Additionally, lighting can be added to create an ambiance to your shelving unit and transform it to a focal point.
Biophilic Functional Art
Biophilia can be added to the home in many different ways from the addition of natural materials such as wood, plants and stone. This service can include anything from the addition of a moss wall to an Icelandic inspired blue lagoon piece of art. Biophilic pieces don't always need to be wall art and can be functional (i.e., a clock, coat/key hanger, serving tray).
Mirrors
We can create a live edge mirror from a small bathroom mirror to a full length mirror. The addition of Eco smart LED lighting can be added to elevate the ambiance.
Biophilic Design Consulting
This service includes the design and creation of a cohesive and sustainable space or event, whether it be in the home, in the office or for an occasion. We incorporate biophilic and sustainable items wherever possible while maintaining the clients' style. We'll work closely to ensure that your space is functional and sustainable. If you are hosting an event, we can use biophilic elements to create a cohesive setting from displays to tableware and decor.
