Russian Baltic birch Plywood is one of my most favorite materials. Pure, affordable, Eco friendly, easy to work with and very urban looking. Most of my jobs evolve around plywood these days and price point of products made of plywood is just great. Challenge here was to create a CNC machinable, affordable and cool looking enough plywood chair, to grab attention of anyone who is interested in contemporary furnishing. Flat packaged, easy to use, simplistic 3 leg plywood chair requires minimal hardware and just few minutes to assemble. I like Baltic birch plywood just raw with no chemical finishing but it can be easily lacquerer finished or stained / color matched fairly easily by anyone.

Coming from commercial, custom mill-work field, always give our designs more realistic and up to scale appeal and this conceptual reception desk for Toronto client is no exception.

the challenge here was to accommodate comfortably two people behind the desk and make it look modern enough within the given budget and functional at the same time.

the high contrast of black and white high gloss finishing materials in this rendering, with combination of chrome posts, supporting the whole upper part of this reception desk should bring enough attention to this peace and appropriately represent its company.

Another low budget, custom reception desks done for a Remax office in Toronto. The challenge was to build an octagonal shaped desk around existing column. Face partition of the reception desk was fabricated with 3/4 veneered particle board, trimmed with brushed nickel spits of metal and back was finished with black melamine for better maintenance purposes. 2 laminated counter top surfaces one lower for stuff with filing cabinets under and one higher for customers. Desk was build by JDMcNicoll Interiors ]]> http://www.etobic.com/custom-reception-desk-toronto/feed 3 http://www.etobic.com/store-fixtures-toronto-optical-store http://www.etobic.com/store-fixtures-toronto-optical-store#comments Sat, 27 Mar 2010 03:12:28 +0000 Martin Pitonak http://www.etobic.com/?p=1584 Very affordable and quick, low budged store fixture design done for a Toronto retail store selling optical products. The project was sitting in my files for more than a year after the store and millwork was finished by JDMcNicoll Interiors, so I decided to render it and share it with you. Nine, diamond shaped, mirror store fixtures with operable doors and storage shaving under the counter, combined with glass shelving displays in between each mirror store fixture unit makes it an enormous storage and display place. Reception desk with high and low counter tops and tone of drawers for storage.

Slat wall in the back and glass display island in the middle of the store makes it a place for a very large quantity stock of selling items. All store fixtures were CNC cut and plastic laminated and each store fixture had three pot lights installed. ]]> http://www.etobic.com/store-fixtures-toronto-optical-store/feed 6 http://www.etobic.com/lego-boardroom-table http://www.etobic.com/lego-boardroom-table#comments Fri, 12 Mar 2010 01:52:38 +0000 Martin Pitonak http://www.etobic.com/?p=1447 An amazing project Boys & Girls initialized by abgc architecture & design firm from Dublin in Ireland that takes a fairly simple commodity and turning it into amazing, functional, modern and color full (4ft x 9ft) peace of  furniture that stands out like no other.
