About

Disparate materials formed into something useful, something greater than the sum of its parts, is a cool phenomenon. My enthusiasm for this phenomenon is deep. It’s why I build.

My father, Ford Livengood taught me most of what I know, and my uncles, John O’Halloran and Walter Rogers, filled in the rest. Also, my wife, Sara, is a general badass, and the best partner, in building and life.

I use reclaimed materials whenever possible, and build everything in New Jersey.

If you like any of these pieces, or have an idea for a custom design, I’d love to hear from you. Please use the contact page to get in touch.
