“Flyaway City: Architecture for a Flourishing Ecosystem”, the current exhibition at the Chicago Architecture Center showcases innovations that help nature and cities coexist. Dan Sullivan built the display tables and worked closely with exhibition designers Studio Gang to engineer the enormous hanging curtain that creates the elegant flow of the gallery.

Earlier this year, approached to collaborate on a set of dining chairs.

Says Navillus—“Building a solid wood dining chair will forever be the best, funnest, most time consuming challenge for a woodworker. There are famous expensive chairs (the entire Design Within Reach collection) and ubiquitous cheap chairs (see the cover of Bad Bunny’s brilliant new album). It is easy to find discarded beauties in thrift stores and antique shops and alleyways and musty basements, orphaned from a set and in need of refurbishment. Like shoes, chairs are always necessary, but no chair exists that serves everyone.”

From the initial point of inspiration, NW changed the geometry, refined the joinery, stretched and shrank dimensions, dialed in a custom finish and added subtle detailing. Then, the heavy gauge, beautiful black leather added some s*x appeal (and comfort) to truly make this chair an original.

A year ago, had to pull off a job despite being about 90% completed, due to a dispute between the GC and the client. This was a multi-year, whole house renovation, with NW providing the entire millwork package.

Finally able to return, with a new GC, they’re looking forward to seeing through some very nice design work by and getting the client into this beautiful home.
