BIG NYC

Bedmark in NYC hired Pure Timber to fabricate BIG (Bjarke Ingles Group, Denmark) designed children's furniture for WeWork,s NYC experiential education space called WeGrow. Many different pieces (30) were fabricated to the BIG designs. Usually we work in solid hardwood, but this project was specified in Baltic Birch ply. This was not difficult to accomplish for the tops, but the curved sides had to be fabricated from many layers to match the birch plywood. We bent and laminated 3 mm plies, and veneered matching show layers to both the inside and outside of the table and chair bases. Getting the edges right was the challenge and samples were continuously provided to confirm we were producing the correct edge detail. While working with the curves was not an unusual challenge for us, the timing was very aggressive, and the whole project had to be completed in just a few weeks. This caused us to look closely at our manufacturing operation to facilitate the rapid build. We can't always accommodate rush orders, but will try to for your project too.
