I’m Back! (Again)!


It has been quite some time since my last post.  Over the past few months, I have been busy with a couple of extremely large jobs.

The first job was a massive double sided garage for GarageMahals, LLC.  This project was a meeting of old world class and sophistication and old fashioned American muscle. 

The first side, the classic garage side, was designed to be a richly appointed showcase garage.  There is not a tool box to be seen in this space!  The entire garage is decked out in rich Earth tones.  The flooring is a special epoxy blend with a copper tint, while the walls are finished off with hand plastering and painted a deep bronze in color.  Even the wainscoting is plush; the footers and headers are comprised of mahogany, with the actual wainscoting done in black supple leather with a tufted design.  The rear wall of the garage features artwork relating to the automotive industry.  The front of the garage consists of two double wide doors with custom graphics affixed to the back.  Custom columns flank each door and stretch up to the specially designed cover system that hides the doors when they are in the rolled up position.

The second side, the muscle car side, was designed to be a showroom and a workshop. The color scheme here conjures up thoughts of high quality, American built, automotive muscle.  The shades of blue, grey and black and punched up with a deep red trim and columns covered in competition orange.  Like the columns in the classic garage, these columns are custom made and support a cover system that also hides the garage doors in their raised state.  Unlike the classic side, this garage features a large workbench and plenty tool storage space.

While I was working on the garage projects, I was also embroiled in the modeling and rendering of a custom home in Chennai, India.  This massive home actually started as an exterior rendering project in 2011.

Earlier in 2012, The Sater Design Group came back to Lone Wolf Drafting and Design to begin rendering the inside of this one-of-a-kind custom home.  In all, over 100 interior images have been rendered for this project, and we are only now wrapping up the unfurnished stage of development!   For this post, I will only upload images of several key rooms. Once all of the furniture has be been selected by the interior designer, LWDD will go back and begin filling in all of the furniture for each room.  Once that stage has been completed, I will post another blog showing the best of the completed rooms.

Soon, I will be engaged in finishing out the Chennai home, as well as a few more, smaller projects before the year is out.

I’m sorry for the long delay between posts, but as you can see, it’s been a busy year.  For all those that have stayed with me and the blog, I thank you.  I hope those of you who have left will come back, and catch up on the latest news from Lone Wolf Drafting and Design.

Thanks for reading!
