Orono, Maine

Bob is a retired forestry professor at the University of Maine and a lifelong, avid amateur woodworker. This desk was made for the president of Pingree Associates, which owns 800,000 acres of land in Maine. The design and construction were inspired, at all stages, by Bob’s friend and trusted adviser, Christian Becksvoort.
