A commission starts with an inspiration, an existing furniture piece, a design, or, perhaps, a beautiful piece of wood.

Inspiration can then lead into an exciting dialog between the customer and me. This dialog entails discussing the customer's desires, looking at past pieces of my own work, the production of drawings, feedback from the customer, selection of wood and honing down the details. I enjoy this engagement and interaction with my customers, and as a designer, I make it a point to be open to customers' ideas while working to interpret their ideas into a unique finished piece. Being a small, independent shop allows for this kind of personal attention and flexibility.

Commissions I have completed range from prototypes and one of a kind pieces, to furniture for entire dwellings. I have designed and built kitchens, entertainment centers, a post and beam house and my shop & studio here in Stonington.

A design retainer fee accompanies the request for drawings. Wood and finish samples are also available, if necessary. Once the drawings are approved, work can begin on the commission. A payment schedule is negotiated to suit both parties and a contract is drawn up.

I encourage you to give me a phone call or complete the form below with any questions or inquiries.
