Five Massive Oak slabs, one unique statement.

For Oakridge Park’s Time Out Market, we transformed five substantial oak slabs into a sculptural divider and entrance feature—bringing the character of the tree into a highly contemporary space.

From selecting and handling the raw slabs, to milling, flattening, shaping, sanding, and finishing, every stage of the process was done with the scale and natural character of the wood in mind.

This post gives you a look behind the scenes at how these enormous slabs went from raw timber to their final place at the entrance of the market.

And this is only part of the story.
The full process is coming soon.
