Never the Same Second Time Around
What would a home be in Merida without hammock hooks? We opted to fabricate ours from wood, to complement some old existing horse posts that remain from the original house. The brief we gave our carpenter was simple: replicate the one shown below.
Of course, even the simplest of things cannot be recreated. The result, ironically, looks quite phallic. Our construction crew was most amused the day we showed up with them on site.
Now that most of their length is embedded in the wall, they look a bit nipple-like. We can’t decide which “look” is best - perhaps it’s a personal preference?
