DECORATIVE ARTS
David Mayernik has years of experience collaborating with furniture makers and carvers, and has produced designs for clients that range from corporations to discerning individuals. In the case of the library pilaster mockup shown here (top, center), he produced the clay model for the carved center panel. He controls every phase of the process from initial sketches to final finishing to ensure museum-quality results. His extensive international sources of artisans guarantee one-of-a-kind products that are beautiful, functional, and long-lasting.
THE STAGE
David Mayernik has invested decades into research on the relationship of Renaissance and Baroque theater and the arts and architecture. Manifest in his theoretical projects, it has also borne fruit in his recent collaborations with the Haymarket Opera company of Chicago.
