I am located in rural South Central Indiana and draw inspiration from the incredibly beautiful forests that surround my studio. Most of the furniture I build is of my design but I also collaborate with architects and interior designers. My furniture designs are eclectic and my influences include Arts & Crafts, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Asian, Modern, and that funky thing I saw at a garage sale last month. The consistent themes in all of my designs are a focus on quality craftsmanship and the use of superior materials. I’ve been designing and building custom furniture for over 25 years and still enjoy the creative process. Custom furniture is personal. It’s personal for me as the designer and for you as the client. I understand that commissioning custom furniture directly from the designer can sometimes be challenging. My goal is to make the experience an enjoyable one for both of us.
Here are some comments from my recent clients.

"Michael is an endlessly creative craftsman. His love of hardwoods and nature is reflected in his designs. I have worked with Michael on several custom design projects, and it is always a pleasure. His final design is always beyond my expectations."

Dorothy E., Bloomington IN

“The rocking chair he created for us is both a piece of art and the most comfortable rocker we’ve ever owned. I now know how an heirloom is born. I expect my family will rock in this comfy chair for generations to come”

Linda H., Chicago, IL
