Our story
We are a family-owned studio specializing in handcrafted wood furniture and custom woodwork, using both hardwoods and softwoods, creating modern rustic furniture by hand. Whenever possible, we reclaim old barns and use the character-filled lumber alongside kiln-dried lumber, crafting unique pieces that embody real history and soul. Utilizing traditional wood joinery techniques, we build solid, beautiful rustic furniture that celebrates the natural grain and strength of the wood.

Caring for your furniture
Our handcrafted wood furniture is built to last for generations. With proper care, your custom woodwork will only grow more beautiful over time, embodying the charm of rustic furniture design.
Our design ethos
We believe in the old adage: quality over quantity. We apply that principle to every piece of furniture we make - using traditional joinery like mortise and tenon, along with laminating techniques to create furniture that's not just strong and robust, but built to last for generations.

Here we are - Mike and Rush - working together to dismantle another barn. This picture captures exactly who we are: hands-on, a little stubborn, and always in it together. Whether we're tearing down barns, building custom woodworks, or raising our beautiful children, we pour our heart into it all.

Just outside our shop lies the North Saskatchewan River Valley. This view is a daily reminder of why we do what we do. The patience of the river, the strength of the ancient valleys, and the beauty that comes from time and nature all shape how we build. We craft furniture the same way - honest, enduring, and rooted in the landscape we're lucky enough to call home.
