A wall of handmade bamboo tiles for Avi

I just installed this 13.5' long wall of tiles made of antique bamboo veneer, a Sinotique exclusive.
Avi is a Chinatown local and a friend. His recent purchase of a studio apartment in a 1960's modernist building prompted him to ask me for help in designing a space that reflected Sinotique's aesthetic. I enlisted the help of Paul Tarantola whom I know as a great colorist and someone who shares a similar aesthetic, albeit much more focused than myself. In a space as tight as a studio, the design sense has to incorporate discipline and color is key.
Paul and I agreed that the blank wall opposite two giant windows overlooking Chinatown, would be a great place to express a rythmic pattern of handmade bamboo tiles. The result is what you see here.

The other punctuation of color in contrast to the very dark oak floors and walnut toned bamboo is a hot orange / red table base that Paul designed to echoe the window frames' rounded corners. The table is made by Sinotique.
