SHAWN HALVORSON
I grew up in Saint Paul, Minnesota. I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a Bachelors Degree In Architecture in 2015. I worked for Minneapolis design studio RO/LU where gained hands on hands-on experience woodworking, welding, landscaping, and making furniture.
I moved to Honolulu, Hawaii for new experiences, challenges, and perspectives. I became familiar with cabinet manufacturing, lacquer finishing, and how to program and operate Homag CNC machines to design and built furniture. I am currently pursing an architectural license in Hawaii.
I manage every aspect of the project from presentation, purchasing, construction, and installation. I believe that hands-on experience in building projects and growing relationships is imperative for informed design.
