GAME CABINET 01 [PERSONAL PROJECT] 2014: Old video games are one of my passions, along with mid century furniture. I wanted and in-home arcade unit, but I did not want one of the refrigerator-sized arcade units of yore. This is what I came up with: Heavily mid-century modern influenced, designed, and hand-made by me. This arcade machine is one of a kind.

Unfortunately I lost all of the in-process imagery for the project - but I still had my original sketches. The profile of the old Centipede cabinet was a great piece to reference. Marrying 80's clunkiness with some mid century materials was key to my design.
