"Creating bold natural wood live edge dining tables, wood countertops, burl coffee tables, organic wood headboards, & river tables to satisfy to senses and create a powerful first impression in a space that connects with nature."
Lumberlust Designs creates bold artistic furniture and wood art from the most figured reclaimed hardwood slabs for your home or office. We collect rare burl and special wood slabs with movement and presence that have a story to share.
We primarily focus on made-to-order commissioned pieces but occasionally build inventory to flex new artistic designs that are for sale in a local boutique and online here. Our new Earth bones manzanita burl or Juniper Burl Tree table and resin cast pieces with mineral rock like sodalite, chrysocolla and other metaphysical gems are good examples of new styles I'm excited to explore.
For residential clients we've built mostly stand-alone furniture pieces like bold statement entry tables, coffee tables, dining tables, desks, etc. In some cases we've installed live edge slab vanities, or special built-ins like large corners desks, countertops, or shelving.
For commercial clients we've helped source and finish specialty wood slab surfaces for large scale build outs, We've made conference tables, bathroom vanities, natural live edge wood counter tops for retail and reception areas, as well as 30ft+ long slab bartops. My favorite has been a winged shaped burl reception countertop at JetSuiteX here in Phoenix for Swift Aviation. We just completed a rush 2.5 week build for a 27ft Walnut live edge standing bar top for Novel Uptown Phoenix.
How do your pieces come to life? Tell us one interesting thing about your creative process?
"It depends on if we're creating a commissioned piece versus building something for sale in a boutique. Wood selection is at the core of either scenario, and we source mostly reclaimed hardwoods from Phoenix, Maple and Walnut from Washington, and other sustainable exotics upon request."

Q&A
What do you want people to do or feel when they encounter your creations?
"First impressions are everything right? Visually the form and texture needs to draw the viewer in with curiosity to want to touch it. I love seeing a client reach for their piece to get their hands on it for the first time. The best furniture is the kind you feel and that leaves an impression where you cant wait to see it again."
