Our Design Theory

We create designs that are simplifications of form and enhancements of function (handles carved into drawer fronts, large flat surfaces, drawers that are large enough to hold a lot, no mechanical drawer runners). We eliminate unnecessary ornamentation (drawer handles, intricate leg turnings, curved drawers, carvings ect). Aesthetic statements are added only where they encourage functional quality. Each design lends itself to a variety of function so that each piece can be tailored for unique user experience. A dresser can be used as a buffet or entertainment cabinet without it looking repurposed or out of place. Drawers can be purchased separately. Drawer pockets can be further finished to be used as fixed shelves, etc.

The lack of ornament yields products which facilitate ease of use and highlight the quality of the American Hardwoods. Our end goal is to reduce clutter and simplify life — making utility elegant.
