Gregg Fleishman, Alicia, 1996. European Birch.




 I met Gregg Fleishman in Culver city, stumbling into his studio to get out of the rain. He used to route his chairs and other furniture by hand. With the advent and refinement of CNC milling, he has expanded his operation to include vehicles, play structures, and emergency structures. His work is a good example of how the computer can take a repetitive task such as milling into sheets of plywood and speed it up to allow a designer to create ever more far fetched pieces.
