Chad Manley’s extensive line of designer-built furniture is made from the finest solid woods, steel and stone with impeccable craftsmanship and hand finished to ensure the longevity of his work. Inherent in these designs is a commitment to the tradition of craft. This timeless quality lends this work the ability to take pride of place in contemporary, modern or traditional architecture and interiors. It has been Chad’s greatest joy to see his work passed on from one generation to the next.
The art of design starts first and foremost by seeing the world in all of its detail with raw eyes. Honoring the design or ‘way’ of the world by truly witnessing it is the first step in the practice of design. When my vision is clear, new designs come seldom from the drafting table but from observations made in the process of making. The process of creating one piece informs the next in an endless cycle. Process, after-all, is how the ‘natural world’ designs and redesigns itself. It is all done in motion.
Those of us, who look carefully at our environment, tend to be the ones who also choose to live with and by design: to live with aesthetic intention, with fewer things and to choose the things we live with for their quality and beauty.
