i am absolutely honored to have my work among the baker | mcguire resort collection. they are fully invested in CRAFTMANSHIP or shall we say craftspersonship. since baker | mcguire began their company in 1890 [ mcguire established in 1948 ] every collection is meticulously selected crafted + formed. in my opinion: while baker's focus is more on edgy modern designs, mcguire focuses on naturally luxurious fine furniture, their style being coastal cali, but catering more towards timeless design | product. they both have this huge following of talented designers who are looking for product that meets their impeccable standards.
baker | mcguire seattle is hosting an event for CEU Credits TH SEPT 19 @ 11AM
they will be discussing FURNITURE FASHION: how design attributes [beyond wood + upholstery] using natural sources are being used + taken care of
these details are important to me as my sustainable art product line will be on view among these special lux home furnishings. everytime i walk into the baker | mcguire showroom I see a new detail that i didn't notice before.
after working with a lot of showrooms @ the boston design center + even opening my own gallery in the bdc [2018], once I stumbled upon the seattle design center i just knew I had to somehow get back into designers world. as i sent my intern off to a few selected showrooms she instantly had a connection with sue, a seasoned sales rep at baker | mcguire. turns out said interns mom + sue both were in the same sorority! she shared my sustainable collection samples + discussed how it would work well with the aesthetic of their space. modern + textured, it was a match. excited to color match for them using a specific blue [baby blue eyes] + create new works that have been in my mind for a while. next step is getting the word out about sustainable art while still a relatively new concept here hopefully one that is appreciated among the naturesque evergreen state. thank you to baker | mcguire for this amazing opportunity.
