A satisfying creative process,
elegantly reflected in the finished piece ...

Bill Thomsen has been a professional woodworker for twenty years, first making his mark in custom commercial millwork and then as a builder of authentic Arts & Crafts reproductions. He and his team of highly skilled craftsmen bring an artisan's love of process to their creations.

"I've always enjoyed working with my hands and building furniture. I like selecting the wood, working with the grain, using hands-on procedures like cutting dovetails and mortise and tenon joints. How tight can I make that joint? It's satisfying to make a sideboard and not use any metal fasteners.

"Arts & Crafts furniture is fun to build. It's a pure pleasure to use traditional woodworking techniques that enhance the natural texture of wood instead of masking or artificially altering it. And very satisfying to use all of the skills of your trade to make something of lasting beauty."
