In the Spring of 2023, I entered into a Makers competition ( The Maker Collab) with a close friend of mine. We both went to Architecture school and loved the sitcom How I Met Your Mother - as most architecture students do. The theme of the competition was TV Shows, so we quickly decided on HIMYM and developed a concept to combine the skills we learned at university with our woodworking experience. As such, we designed a coffee table which doubled as a display case for a 1/2” : 1’-0” model of Ted Mosby’s apartment from the show. This collaboration project was incredibly fun to build and design, and am really proud of the end product.
