2016
Focusing primarily on tables and bar tops, Josh (and a few dear friends) decided to dip their toes into the world of furniture making. Sharing a 900-square-foot shop with Urbn Timber, ACS completed their first commercial projects in 2016: Surehouse Coffee, Rockmill Tavern, and TENFOLD. Keeping it in the family, Josh’s father, Paul, would drive from Cleveland to help with all of the big projects.
