My shop was never designed to be pretty. It was built to work. Every decision leaned toward function, and if the aesthetics didn’t quite follow, so be it. I don’t regret that approach at all. But as I’ve gotten older, and the all-night thrash sessions have become fewer and farther between, I’ve started to appreciate spaces that put a little more emphasis on comfort and atmosphere. Not above function, but closer to it.



Which brings me to Nick Grant and his vintage-inspired workshop in Scotland.



There’s something about the way he’s blended a proper working shop with a space you actually want to spend time in. It’s not just tools and tasks, it’s a place to sit, think, hang out, and enjoy the process. That balance is hard to get right, and he nailed it.



I’m completely taken with it.



Anyway, have a look through the gallery...

VICTOR BERGERON crate probably from Trader Vic’s, the original tiki bar chain in the US that opened just before WWII I believe. I worked in the one in NYC in the 80’s.
