Since then, the series has gained momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some pieces, including the nightstand, integrate unused tiles from custom creations. \u201cThese leftovers were from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/introspective-magazine\/kelly-wearstler-synchronicity\/\">Kelly Wearstler<\/a>\u2019s orders for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/ulla-johnson\/fashion\/\">Ulla Johnson<\/a> retail experience in Los Angeles,\u201d Martin says. \u201cOccasionally, we have objects come out of our studio that are defined in size and scale by what is left over from a commission.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/creators\/jeff-martin-joinery\/furniture\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"950\" height=\"773\" src=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JMJ_6871-950x773.jpg\" alt=\"Textured, one-of-a-kind tiles on the Sarcophagus nightstand by Jeff Martin Joinery.\" class=\"wp-image-426402\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JMJ_6871-950x773.jpg 950w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JMJ_6871-430x350.jpg 430w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JMJ_6871-120x98.jpg 120w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JMJ_6871-768x625.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JMJ_6871-1536x1250.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JMJ_6871-1146x933.jpg 1146w, https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/blogs\/the-study\/wp-content\/uploads\/JMJ_6871.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The tiles on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/dealers\/jeff-martin-joinery\/shop\/\">Jeff Martin Joinery<\/a>\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1stdibs.com\/furniture\/more-furniture-collectibles\/bedroom-furniture\/night-stands\/sarcophagus-bedside-table-sculpted-ceramics-wood\/id-f_38866792\/\">Sacophagus nightstand<\/a> vary in color, size and texture.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Martin\u2019s Vancouver workshop is known for its deep material practice and sculptural approach to furniture. After years working in carpentry and cabinetmaking, including a formative stint in Brooklyn, the largely self-taught maker slowly built up his own company over the past 15 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, he combines artful exploration, production rigor and sustainability in his practice, winning such accolades as <em>Western Living<\/em> magazine\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/westernliving.ca\/doty\/furniture-design\/furniture-designer-of-the-year-2019-jeff-martin-joinery\">furniture designer of the year<\/a>, in 2019. Several of his works, including a Sarcophagus console, were shown at the most recent Design Miami fair, in December.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Martin says he prefers to work with materials that embody

Columbia to positively impact the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bedside table distills Martin\u2019s broader ambitions into a single, enigmatic object \u2014 rich in texture, grounded in craft and open to interpretation. \u201cI love the mythmaking, ideas and intent behind the work,\u201d he says, \u201cwhich is poetic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\t<div class=\"interstitial-banner
