Our workshop is where craftsmanship, design, and practical problem-solving come together. From individual chairs and heirloom pieces to large commercial seating projects, each piece is carefully evaluated, rebuilt, repaired, and upholstered with attention to comfort, durability, and detail.

The shop is equipped to handle both residential and commercial work, including furniture restoration, custom upholstery, cushion and foam replacement, and larger-volume projects. We take pride in doing the work properly — using quality materials and thoughtful techniques to give well-made furniture many more years of use.

I was born and raised in Sweden, and after moving to Hawaii in 2004, I met my wife, Janine, who is originally from South Africa. We later made our way to Virginia and settled in the Harrisonburg area in 2015.

Working with my hands is something I have always loved, and upholstery has become a natural fit for my detail-oriented and creative nature. I enjoy working closely with clients to find the right combination of comfort, material, color, and design for each piece. I also offer a wide selection of upholstery fabrics and take great care to make sure every client is happy with the finished result.

Upholstery was not my original career path. In many ways, it came as a surprise — almost like discovering something I had been meant to find all along. I have always been a very tactile person, and the combination of craftsmanship, design, fabric, and furniture suits me well.

Over time, I have naturally gravitated toward fine furniture, custom design work, and projects that combine woodwork and upholstery. I especially enjoy the relationship between the structure of a piece and the fabric that ultimately gives it its character.

There may be something inherited in all of this as well. My grandfather built and upholstered furniture, and my mother has always been an accomplished seamstress. Perhaps a little of that craftsmanship has been passed down through the generations.
