FURNITURE SALE ON NORTH FREEWAY

wacdesignstudio is pleased to announce “Furniture Sale on North Freeway” a guerrilla retail event that will take place on Sunday March 7th 2010 from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. in the abandoned lot of the former Landmark Chevrolet dealership located at 9111 N. Fwy, Houston, TX 77037.

wacdesignstudio is an independent design studio founded in 2009 by Scott Cartwright and Jenny Lynn Weitz-Amaré Cartwright that focuses on the discourse of contemporary art and its relationship to design and architecture.

In “Furniture Sale on North Freeway” wacdesignstudio will be launching its first furniture line, a line designed and fabricated with an attention to the modesty of scale, materials and production. Located outside the crumbling remains of the Landmark Chevrolet Dealership, “Furniture Sale on North Freeway” reflects on the unanticipated failures of highly leveraged businesses and their effects on the city landscape.

wacdesignstudio intends to create the hopeful gesture of a small design business selling its locally designed and manufactured product to local customers.

While we worked.

We were very excited to share with you a few behind the scenes images of our upcoming furniture line. Sadly most of the images were taken from our mobile phones and Jenny's Blackberry got stolen, so we lost most of our images and videos... these are the only ones we had on our e-mails. Enjoy them...

SITE UPDATE

From our desk @ Summer Street Studios //
"Site Due Date: January 1st, 2010."

This has been a long, long year... we have been working on the furniture line since July, and we have been holding the images for so long because we want to launch the website along with the launch of the line, and the building process has taken longer than expected mainly because we both have day jobs and we were lacking a private studio space.

Just recently we were able to rent a studio space at Summer Street Studios in the same building where David Addickes works his Presidents Heads, and we are so happy to be able to afford it, but so sad that we are not able to be there 24/7.

Then the Holidays came and family members were visiting... geez! No time for anything, I cannot wait until this year ends! We have set ourselves a goal: the site must be launched by January 1st, 2010 by 6:00pm Central Standard Time. If we do not do it, we will never do it.

So, get ready to see a gorgeously designed website, a sneak preview of the furniture line and information regarding our first big project of the year! wacdesignstudio wishes everyone that reads this post a very Happy and Prosperous New Year!

Cheers!
