The clients needed a way to use their shower without stepping down into their tub, which was set flush with the floor. The solution was to construct a series of I-Beams with sliding dovetails. Since there are no nails or other metal fasteners, the grate will never rust or corrode.

This grate is actually a series of interconnected, wooden I-Beams which hang from the lip of the tub, creating a flush surface to stand on while showering. The grate can be removed from the tub and stacked easily for bathing. The combination of Ipe (pronounced EE-pey), a dense tropical wood often used as a teak substitute, and Spar Varnish, which is commonly used to finish boat decks, make this a very strong and very durable piece.

The cabinet features four long set sets of hand-cut, mitered dovetails, and three separate storage compartments, and resawn and bookmatched sides.

A modern, minimalist take on the side table, this cabinet anchors into, but is set back from, the wall. The cabinet itself appears to float off the wall.
