A while back I wrote about our friends at Tropical Salvage and their good work in this post.  I’m so happy to report that after many weeks at sea, the Tropical Salvage shipping container arrived bearing loads of beautiful furniture for Leftbank (including desks for the Hive).

Going above and beyond the call seems to be standard practice for these people.  In addition to partnering with Leftbank to bring the project incredible, ecologically and ethically sound furniture, Kevin Havice then spent 2 days helping us get it moved in and teaching us to care for it.  Now we’re armed with the knowledge we need to keep these pieces gorgeous and functional far longer than any of us will be.  Thank you so much, Kevin and Tim!

hello Leftbank people! we would like to announce the new tag for our design collective in suite 202: dc202, pretty simple to remember. we are a group of modern design based architects, interior designers, furniture/lighting designers and fabrication coordinators. please stop by and see us, we love company! oh yeah, Tucker the PUG works up here with us.

…thats how we felt when we finally moved into Leftbank a few weeks ago, we are home…

late in 2008 the owners of intelligent design, SOLIDCORE, ORANGEWALLstudios and JHL Design came together to form a collective of design based firms that would share resources, networks, skill sets and backgrounds. we felt the team would be more efficient and run a tighter set of ships by leveraging each others strengths. the search was on to find the perfect space for the new collective. after several false starts (fortunate for us none of them worked out) we found Leftbank suite 202 and knew it was home right on the spot. we can be called “design 202″ instead of intelligent design, SOLIDCORE, ORANGEWALLstudios and JHL Design.

now we are temporarily located in suite 208 while 202 is built out. we will have an architectural, interiors, furniture and lighting resource library at the heart of our space and will make it available for the building to use along with some stylin’ conference and lounge spaces once we are moved in, come by and say hi.
