About

We have set out on a path to create unique furniture pieces from initial concept to finished product. Our studies in architecture have led us to the realization that the hands on process of design is key to creating truly unique and one of a kind pieces of furniture. There is a special satisfaction that comes from transforming easily accessible stock materials into furnishings that are not only functional, but beautiful. There are no large production lines here, no large staff, and no limits; we enjoy working on a case by case basis with our designs as well as custom orders. Our shop may be small, but our ideas and determination are limitless.

We have recently purchased a century old barn in Minto township, located in southern Ontario, and are in the process of transforming it into our shop as well as our home. We believe that you should ‘do what you love and love what you do’ and so we are on a mission to create a live/work atmosphere that will solve both our creative needs and our love for truly unique treasures. Reusable material, and salvaged scrap is where we find our inspiration and we think that these one of a kind aspects of our work make each piece of furniture something special. We have a mission to respect our environment, to use materials that are reusable or reused, to reduce waste and to support those who share our values. All of our work is made with solid woods and metals so that each piece can be refinished many times without degrading, or disassembled for a different use altogether.

do what you love and love what you do

Our furniture, especially our tension line, has a very strong influence stemming from industry and engineering components and strategies. The use of tension cables has always fascinated us simply because of the amount of raw strength in every slim cable. This fascination, along with an understanding of structural assemblies, a respect for tensegrity, and other similar construction methods is what gives us the initial concept of each design. Even though our designs are somewhat unconventional, it is what makes them truly unique, one of a kind pieces that stand out from the rest while still having a function in every day life. Our goal is to create furniture that grabs the attention on the first glance with its innovation, and holds it with its functionality and adaptability. Each piece is a reflection of our passion for and commitment to transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary.
