VENDOR POP UP: GingerBeard

Meet Phillip Barnes aka GingerBeard, he has a soft spot for lamps, games, and mechanical oddities.

A lot of what I make starts with found wood, thrifted glass, or some odd metal cast-off that caught my eye… then, with a little laser-cut precision I make everything fit together. The result usually ends up in a style I am calling “organic industrial,” a blend of whimsy, wood, and widgets.

I want you to interact with the things I make. Touch, turn, fiddle. It’s meant for your hands as much as your eyes. If I’m lucky, something in it will surprise you… a familiar material or thing showing up in an unfamiliar way. Every piece is a prototype, built once and never repeated in quite the same way. Repetition bores me… but discovery? That never does.
