This is big year for me and the brand. We are moving into our new head quarters. We needed a space that can be used for multiple purposes (design studio / warehouse / retail space). I found a great 2 floor location in the mission district of SF. Here are a few pics of the buildout for the upstairs design studio.
This is how it looked before we got in there. Nasty red carpet everywhere.

Pulled the carpet up to a find a water damaged douglas fir floor. Hell yeah! That carpet gotta go!

It was harder then i thought to get rid of the carpet. Some serious old glue and tile underneath.

Sanded, stained and sealed - much better already and we are just getting started!

Next up is paint. Found some magnetic paint for the walls. No more messy cork board inspiration wall to hold sketches.
Every design studio needs a good reference library. Hired a contractor to build out the walk-in closet as a mini library.
Floor to ceiling wrap around shelving. Added the vintage pencil sharpener to complete the look.
Moving in - I always loved vintage steel tanker desks from the 50’s. I promised myself when I open a space I would track down a set down.
Next we are starting on the retail portion of the space..
