Bespoke Furniture
ABOUT
Sasquatch Laboratories was born out of the desire to balance art and craftsmanship. After a 12 year career in the U.S. Navy as a Seabee Builder, Drew Cellini decided to focus more on his long standing talents as an artist.
Fine woodworking as realized through bespoke furniture and home goods came by way of coursework and mentorship at the University of Minnesota.
A long-standing interest in architecture, craftsmanship, and the arts informs each of Drew’s pieces. In the world of flat packed throw-away furniture, invest in a piece made just for you, made to last a life time.
Process
Whether meeting a client’s request for a bespoke record stand or durable hard wood coasters for local merchants, our process remains the same.
As in other design, furniture design begins with the question: what’s the problem needing resolved?
From there, we look at the intended location, use, budget, lighting, etc.. Each aspect informs how the problem is resolved.
Style is an on-going discussion. Focusing on the above questions tends to dictate the final piece more effectively than rigidity in style. Embracing the beauty in materials and how a finish can make or break a piece is our style.
