A customisation project for Summer 2016
 |  |
Our world map drums always seem to be popular, no matter what we make with them. You have asked us for seating, tables, lights, clocks and wine racks coated with this vintage style atlas print. There's just something really appealing about he muted pastel colours of the map as a backdrop for the chunky old (and even occasionally rusty) metal drum hardware. It just works.
A couple of weeks ago, a customer asked us to make a few alterations to the above atlas storage bins. They both originally had plain wooden tops. We pinched the lid from an existing box and put it on the smaller unit above (left), then Sam added corresponding rope handles to the lid of the larger one. This was the customer's idea and I have to admit, they actually look better now......but don't tell Sam.

The customer in question had also fallen for a black tom tom lamp, but wanted it to match the other two pieces. Sam removed the drum's shiny outer wrap and replaced it with the atlas fabric. It looks great. Scroll down to the bottom for a picture of all three pieces set up together.

| This trio is obviously spoken for, but if you'd like your own atlas piece, just get in touch and let us know what you would like. Alternatively, check out the current atlas pieces listed on our website here. As always, follow us on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook for up to date photos and news from the Rock Terrace workshop.
