5forty intern Dani Gershon designed and built this end table as her summer project. It has a solid acacia top, a welded and powder coated steel frame, and a frosted glass surface below.
5forty designed, assembled, and installed this wall art for an aviation consultancy in Northern Virginia. The design is based on the FAA airport diagram for Reagan National Airport in Arlington, VA. The client wanted a piece that was sufficiently abstract to not be instantly recognizable as being aviation related. The transparent backing is made of Glass Green acrylic CNC routed and flame polished by Norva PLastics in Norfolk. The steel for the runways and terminal buildings was laser cut by Advanced Machine and Tooling in Virginia Beach. 5forty then patinated the steel and put it all together.

The granite vanity has finally been installed in the Virginia Beach house. 5forty designed and built the frame for the architects at Grade, NYC who designed the house. It is steel tube with a custom acid etched finish that looks great with the slate floor. The top of the vanity is a single piece of black granite that weighs over 800 pounds. The walnut cabinetry was done by Crowder’s Custom Cabinets in Hampton, Virginia.
This vanity design uses one of the slabs of Acacia that has recently become available. It is comprised of a steel frame supporting the acacia, a porcelain basin sink, and frosted glass sides and doors for storage below. Fabrication will begin when a buyer is found.
This kitchen table is about 60% complete. It has a steel tube frame supporting two slabs of african mahogany. Down the center of the table are sections made of sheet steel over tube frames with the center basin section being removable. The benches are steel frames with a steel top and cushions supplied by the client.
