Check out our concrete custom art deco bar in South End, Charlotte, North Carolina that we designed and fabricated for Queen Park Social. It was a great opportunity to create a space using the architecture behind our favorite video game, Bioshock.

Our latest project, Orosoko with the great Greg Pappanastos and chef Jay Pound in South End Charlotte. While deceivingly subdued and minimal, the work here was painstakingly complicated. Curved concrete booths with inclines on the seats and back, a fire feature and water feature along with a dj booth that is mind f #* in percussion and ex*****on.

Our Story

An innovative artisan studio specializing in bespoke interiors, concrete countertops, other handmade concrete, wood, and steel products.

Reaching Quiet Design officially began in 2001 at the University of North Carolina in Charlotte, NC. It is the brainchild of three somewhat eccentric art and architecture majors. Benjamin Ross, an art major, and Eric Boyd and Grant Howell, architecture majors were the guys that hung out utilized the schools shop spaces over any other. They built many projects and furniture pieces together for professors and clients. They realized they had a unique synergy and formed Reaching Quiet Design.

They rented a 400 square foot shop near the university and spent a year developing a series of furniture pieces made from simple construction material. Unfortunately, they had no understanding what it would take to market these unusual pieces to create decent revenue.

In a last ditch effort, they organized an event at the Hart-Witzen Gallery in the Noda Arts District. This event went very well and resulted in commissions to design and build some residential and commercial interiors.

Nikko Japanese Restaurant and Gallery Twenty two being the first commercial projects. Both led Reaching Quiet in the direction of working with primarily concrete, wood, and steel. Both projects received national recognition and put RQ on the map for creating highly experiential and well received spaces, including but not limited to: 5church Charlotte and Charleston, Barrington’s, Stagioni, the Embassy Suites in Arysley, Foxcroft Wine Company in Dilworth, Nan and Byrons, and most recently, The Warmack.

Today, Reaching Quiet’s Workshop consists of Eric Boyd, Grant Howell, and Eric Moylan. RQ is among the leaders of the Concrete Renaissance and stays busy designing and creating products for residential and commercial spaces for discerning clients.

Eric Boyd’s interest in design started in his youth. Always fascinated with how things worked, Eric spent much of his youth deconstructing and rebuilding his environment.

His inquisitive nature eventually led him to UNCC’s Architecture program where he immersed himself in the wood and metals shops, further developing his hands-on approach to interior design..

Upon graduation, Eric started Reaching Quiet Design with two fellow UNCC graduates. Setting them apart from their peers, the firm designs and fabricates most of their work by hand and continually blurs the boundaries between architecture, interior design and product/furniture development.

A master in concrete, wood and steel, Eric regularly collaborates with other design professionals in addition to receiving solo commissions. His devotion to concrete as a medium has helped Reaching Quiet become a leader in the decorative concrete industry and has garnered multiple national and international awards.
