For over forty years, Slim crafted fine furniture and custom interiors for some of the Boston, North Shore's, finest homes. Descending from a long line of Danish designers, Slim combined passion, quality craftsmanship, and exceptional design that lead to trusted relationships with his clients, architects and builders. A driven perfectionist, Slim devoted countless hours to master his craft.
Heavily influenced by the natural beauty of wood, and with an appreciation of sculptural forms, Slim explored balance, curves, and contrasts in his work. From sculptural exterior gates, to masterfully designed kitchens, bathrooms and cabinets, Slim offered each client something unique and designed specially to complement and enhance the integrity of their home.
Beginning his career in Seattle, WA, Slim was privileged to work for nationally recognized furniture designer, Joel Shepard. He went on to forge his own designs, showing his work at The Bellevue Museum, The Seattle Woodworkers Guild, and The Pacific Northwest Arts & Crafts Shows. At the young age of twenty, and a newcomer to furniture exhibition, Slim was awarded the top honor in the furniture category at the 1980 Pacific Northwest Arts & Crafts Show. Relocating many years ago to the North Shore of Boston, he continued to design, build, and exhibit furniture, sculpture, and commissioned woodwork.
Sadly, Slim passed away in 2023. This website serves as a tribute to his life's work.
