It's not often that I have an opportunity to build something for my brother. He's been in London for the past ten years and recently moved back to the States. His house is pretty empty so I've taken on the challenge of building as much furniture as possible for his new house. I'll get the process started with a Walnut Dining Table. When I asked him what he liked, he sent me numerous pictures of tables that were firmly in the current interpretation of the MidCentury Modern style. To be frank, I'm having a bit of MCM fatigue so I came up with a design that should make us both happy. And because he's my brother, I just to include a special surprise.
