Aeolus: Keeper Of The Winds

"Keeper of the Winds who gives Odysseus a tightly closed bag full of the captured winds so he could sail easily home to Ithaca on the gentle West Wind. But instead his men thought it was filled with riches, so they opened it, unleashing a hurricane, which is why the journey was extended"

Making My Bed

This is a maple bed that I conceived. I walked by Crate and Barrel at least once a week in DC. I was always looking at the beds because I was sleeping on a bachelor bed frame.

My dad and I designed it and built it. I was mostly influenced by Stickley and Shaker. I wanted it maple because I thought it was lighter than white oak. That difference is negligible. It's a solid, and heavy bed.

I may be revisiting the designs later in an unconventional sense
