Testimonials

"The table that Andrew designed for us turned into a masterpiece of functional art. The process of creating this table from start to end was an exceptional experience. Andrew has the unique ability to hear visualize and build based on what we wanted while gently adapting the concept to suit the elements and principles of design.

As well as being a thing of beauty, the care and the craftmanship that is evident in the table is astounding. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect table for our breakfast nook."

"The entire experience of having Andrew design out table was a fabulous one. This is the first major piece of art we have ever purchased - in addition to being our first piece of custom/high end furniture. Andrew is not only a fine woodworker of the highest order, but a wonderfully warm person. From the very beginning, he worked with us to understand how we used our dining room/how we dine and how we entertain so he could build us a table that fit our lifestyle, needs, and aesthetic and environmental concerns. He met with us, without ever pressuring us in any way, several times to see the space/our home and talk about sustainable wood sources and approaches. he had extensive, helpful and lovely photos of design options and was very honest and fair about pricing. We feel only slightly guilty that I have the most magnificent dining table in Waterloo at a price and of a quality that would make anyone in Toronto/Oakville green with envy! The table is simply gorgeous, and has already, in three weeks,survived red wine spills, children's oily/saucy fingers, and hot/wet plates. We only hope that generations who care for it after us will appreciate its elegant and eminently functional design as much as we do."

"Andrew Wainwright is an outstanding artist and craftsman with a deep sensitivity to the beauty and functions of wood. Andrew impressed us by sharing his understanding of the entire process of his craft, from the trees themselves with the infinite variations in grain and tones that he brought out and utilized with an artist's skill to the refined construction. The bed that Andrew designed for us is absolutely stunning and each night stand a signature piece, at once unique and complementary, exquisite in form and feel and flawless in function. We treasure these pieces. Moreover, it was a pleasure to experience their evolution; to work with and learn from Andrew."
