About

A passion for handmade mid-century modern furniture...

With training as an Industrial Designer (Product Designer), I've always had a passion for beauty, quality, form, and function. My love of furniture began when I furnished my first residence. After browsing endlessly for furniture, I began to develop an infatuation with the clean minimal style you see in Mid-Century Modern, Scandinavian furniture (Danish/Nordic Design), and even Japanese interior design. They all possessed the same qualities: Clean lines, a simple elegance, and an incredible amount of attention paid to quality, craftsmanship, and detail.

Not finding anything that quite matched what I was looking for I started designing my own furniture. It began with many hand sketches until I figured out a basic form language for my pieces. I then created computer models that started off looking pretty primitive, but after many iterations I finally came to a place that I really liked. Now to have it come to life...

I began working with a local woodworker to create these pieces to the quality level I desired. The furniture is made using the highest quality solid woods and hardwoods. I didn't want to create another veneer covered, plywood, cheap piece of furniture like you find at Ikea, wayfair, crate and barrel, etc. Each piece is custom made by the same woodworker, insuring consistent and excellent quality as well as finish. You can feel great knowing your custom piece of furniture will stand out and last the test of time to be your own family heirloom as well as standing out from the cheap/fake furniture found at mass retailers online.
