    The installation, that was made at a friend’s house over the course of a summer, is one of a kind, custom designed, and built on location, so if you’d like one yourself, you’ll need to invite Rob over!

    “First I design and build to the specific needs of the location, and my clients,” Rob said“Each tree is different, it is an organic process.”

    “For Permanent Installations, like cat trees, furniture, beds, reading nooks etc. I start by constructing a wooden armature, to give structure, then I attaché, then carve sheets or blocks of foam that are then covered with a paper pulp/particle clay.”

    “That is then mixed with heavy duty wood glue.. (or even fiberglass resin, but I prefer not to use fiberglass) This is extremely durable.”

    “For something that needs a little less structure, or is temporary, like a theatrical set, or storefront display I’ll build “a tree” out of cardboard, and paper mache. Sometimes I’ll do a mix of both techniques. This is still very Durable.”

    “Because of the time and the labor involved in making something like this, I charge a minimum of $4000 to $4500,” Rob explains. “This doesn’t include the cost for supplies, that are paid for by my client separately. The total amount is contingent on size, and extras added. The material needs vary from job-to-job and time spent.”

    “If you want to commission me to build you a tree, please feel free to contact me!”
