While we’re putting together some upcoming themes we thought we’d post a few items currently on the BUILD radar, enjoy…
Chase Jarvis FRAMES: Studio Buildout
Good friend Chase Jarvis has recently completed a very handsome build-out of his photography studio with SKB Architects. Being the thorough photographer that he is, he’s put together a 4,000 photo documentation of the process. Rarely is a project so well captured throughout construction – all the way down to stocking the bar. Check out the photomontage here.

Synesso Espresso Machines
Our buddy Todd Lawson, architect for Herkimer Coffee, sent over some info about the gorgeous espresso machines Synesso makes right here in Seattle. A chat with the barista over at Herkimer confirmed that they are the Cadillac of espresso machines and function as good as they look. With the Synesso machines each espresso head can be individually controlled for temperature and time – much better for those ristretto pulls. The mechanics of Synesso machines are manual – leaving the quality of the espresso in the hands of your trusted barista.
