As a 15 year furniture retail veteran at MigandTig.com, finding quality, comfortable dining chairs has been one of the most challenging categories to fill.
But, as I was walking down the street at the HighPoint Furniture market one season, the clouds opened up, the angels flew in and there she stood….Design Master…the Mothership of dining chairs. My prayers had been answered. The chase was over.
You see, I had given up at one point and thought, I am a small retailer… I will never find a great source for dining chairs like the big stores have. But, we must keep the faith.
Design Master produces their chairs in the US and customizes finishes, fabrics and trims. They are an organized company, provide excellent value and deliver timely. Do yourself a favor and don’t waste years like I did. Contact Nancy at Nedgington@comcast.net to find your local retailer or if a store, open up your account! Amen to that!

Some are at a point in life where we wish to de-clutter our minds and spaces. Entering a chaotically designed room can be uneasy. Yet, environments that present as relaxing and warm create a relieving mind set.
Green and Sienna Furniture gives an emotion of calm. Sequoia, designer and owner emulates his personality into his furniture line…harmonious.
At MigandTig.com and MortiseTenon.com we applaud and support small businesses like Sequoia’s that provide great design and integrity. Nope, no private jets, big expense accounts or bailout money here… just great design ideas and hard work. Check out Sequoia at his store or contact Green and Sienna if you are a retailer for a little Zen.

Younho Choi : 3rd Place, AV Challenge, Sponsored by MigandTig.com and MortiseTenon.com
AV furniture: third place. Congratulations from YourFurnitureLink.com! I think we will be seeing more of Younhi in the Design World in the future. Hey Manufacturers…LOOK OVER HERE….FRESH TALENT!
“This cabinet exudes penthouse chic and is beautifully balanced. The jigsaw puzzle element is highly creative, adds a touch of warmth and whimsy. It does present challenges as to having enough room for the various components that a high end AV system usually requires”. Jerod Lazan of Mortise and Tenon, Los Angeles Challenge Judge.
Younho Choi: ” Hi everyone~ my name is Younho Choi. I am senior student of Harrington College of Design. I am from S Korea. I have been U.S for 4years. Chicago gives me a lot of inspiration ideas for my own design such as the harmony of old traditional buildings and modern buildings.”

Peter Klick, an awesome instructor at Harrington College of Design in teaching mode! He looks so cool in black, his long hair and sexy Swiss accent!

Meet Constantine Vasilios, a professor at Harrington College of Design and Architect, with student Vicki Wehrli. There is nothing like a great instructor to guide and help you open your mind!

AV furniture competition honorable mention: congratulations!
Jahaila Sing: “Hi, my name is Jahaila Sing. I was raised by my single mom, grandmother and aunt. I found myself passionate about design from very young. My mother has been an office floor planer/ project manager for 20 years. From I was a kid she would bring home floor plans; lay them out on the dinning room table and tell me to pull up a chair. I would watch her in awe as she explained the symbols and reasons for why the vise president and president needed to be moved on the floor plan. She would take me to showrooms and glide her hand slowly across beautiful pieces of furniture, explaining what made them special. Spaces and furniture design is something my mother and I share in common. I design in the passion that she brought to the dining room table and I strive to create beautiful pieces.
My inspiration were pieces that looked natural and clean lined.”


Meet Peter Klick, a professor at Harrington College of Design.

Hans of Shima Woodcraft owns and created the interior of his restaurant, Medici, in Normal, Illinois. Hans used Oak, Ash and Walnut which were environmentally harvested in a sustainable way from his land.

Many of the furniture designs are conceived by his Amish neighbors. Their religion discourages commercial enterprise and recognition, gratitude and accolades of their creations. Nevertheless, Hans has honored them with the name of his company, “Shima”, Amish…almost spelled backwards. 
Hans published a book available at Amazon.com called, “Common Sense Forestry”, for his first love…forestry. Check out more very cool, green and sustainable furniture by Shima Woodcraft.
