Our Family
We are based in Howell, Michigan, and believe in building a life as solid and meaningful as the furniture we craft. Whether we're spending a crisp fall day outside with our kids or working together in the shop, our center is about creating things that last—whether it’s memories, moments, or beautiful heirloom furniture. What matters most to us is time together, nature all around, and the joy of hands-on living. Just like the furniture we build, our family life is rooted in care, craftsmanship, and a deep appreciation for every season we get to share.
How It Started
Cody started his career working as a dishwasher then cook, honing his skills in fast-paced kitchens and developing a strong work ethic rooted in creativity and precision. After working in the hospitality industry for over a decade, he decided to pursue a long-time passion for woodworking. He began working in high end custom cabinetry, and after five years flew by, it was time to strike out on his own and pursue entrepreneurship.
What started with small home decor projects and an Etsy shop quickly grew into a full-time custom furniture business. Today, Cody focuses on building high-quality, handcrafted pieces that balance durability, functionality, and clean, timeless design and takes pride in creating furniture that’s built to last—and built to be lived in.
