This week I had the opportunity to tour the Thomas Hayes Studio, and visit with both Thomas and his lovely wife, Jonelle, who heads up the company’s operations. If you are not familiar with Thomas’s work, you should be. Thomas is a master creator and craftsman known for his gorgeous, and unique furniture pieces, all of which are made by hand in his Hollywood studio. Inspired by modern Brazilian design, Hayes’ furniture reflects an elevated version of midcentury simplicity: geometric forms highlighted by luxurious materials – fine woods and buttery leathers – and meticulous, sculptural craftsmanship. https://www.thomashayesstudio.com/
