Panel Discussion : reduxiture at New Puppy

On October 11, 2009, we participated in a panel discussion, as part of the reduxiture show at New Puppy Gallery in Los Angeles, with four members of our newly formed a group of professional Los Angeles based furniture makers committed to environmentally conscious design and production, LA Box Collective. The first public appearance, we discussed our philosophies for building sustainable furniture.

The hour and a half long discussion was moderated by Harold Greene, president of The Woodworker’s Guild of Southern California, himself a furniture maker with 30 years of experience. The panel of William Stranger, Leigh Spencer, Topher Paterno and Sam Moyer discussed the cycle of consuming disposible furniture, salvage wood sources and FSC certification.
