Jean Baptiste! You can tell he's cool, right? :) This is him greeting me at his workshop when I went to go visit. Jean Baptiste has had a lot of special requests by me with my weird American designs and painted wood which was thought to be kinda crazy. He has done a great job and installs everything for us at our house. It's been wonderful working with him! The workshop is a really cool place where there are tons of carpenters and seamstresses all working in the same government run spot called Gakiriro. A lot is happening! This wood is all going to be my furniture. I got the tour of the rest of the place as well. Here is all the big wood working machines. This is the storage area where finished pieces live. This is actually a good representation of the general furniture aesthetic in Rwanda. Curved lines, stained wood, very ornate pieces. Wasn't really what I was going for in my house unfortunately! Then...
