New Haven Night Market Pavilion
Installed through the heat and rain of the 2025 New Haven Night Market, our first construction project was an exercise in reclamation. Built from Facebook Marketplace pallets and refined over hundreds of hours at Makehaven, this kiosk invited the community to become co-designers.We view reclaimed materials as storytellers; their previous lives are visible in every weathered grain. By adding new layers of painting and writing, the people of New Haven helped us turn waste into a living monument of a moment in time.
New Haven Porchfest Stage Design
In the summer of 2025, invited by Goatville Salvage, we continued our design journey with a familiar, humble hero of the urban landscape: the found pallet.
We turned the Lawrence Street Plaza into a living hub.
Our design served as the performance backdrop for the music festival New Haven Porchfest. But as the final notes faded, the installation began its second life: a modular system of street furniture designed to be rearranged, sat upon, and reimagined by the public.

Stage Design
For the TEDx New Haven stage, we designed more than just letters; we created a "kit of parts" for a child’s imagination. To ensure these iconic forms didn't retreat into storage after the final applause, we engineered each character to be multidirectional and multi-functional. With a simple rotation, a stage backdrop becomes a shelf, a desk, or a seat.Finished in a palette of vibrant colors, these pieces now live at the Friends Center for Children—a hardworking companion for early childhood play.
