This is a craftsman style chest of drawers built for a client to match their existing pieces in their home. The woods used are quartersawn white oak , poplar, and aromatic cedar. An interesting design feature of this piece is the use of cedar drawer bottoms. This gives a pleasing aroma every time the drawers are opened

For Maple Dressing TableRyan is truly a master craftsman. The vanity he designed - to my small specifications - is beautiful. I am so happy with the piece. It fits perfectly and looks terrific. My husband and I drove up to Ryan's shop on the Cape and picked up the vanity. Added bonus - visiting Cape Cod again! I would recommend Ryan to anyone, and I keep looking around our house to see what else I might need built!! Pat Mazella

For Flat-file tableI'm so pleased with my project that Ryan completed! He took my idea and really brought it to life; the flat file table came out even better than I had ever hoped. Ryan was incredibly professional and careful with every detail, checked in with me often with project updates or to check on how I wanted a particular part executed, and he even was able to personally deliver my table to my studio. Every time someone walks into my space now, that table is the first thing they say and I always get so many compliments on it! Finding Ryan to complete my project was definitely the right choice. Beyond happy with his amazing craftsmanship!

For Loft BedRyan was great at every level: communication, designing the bed, building it, keeping us uptodate with his progress, and delivering on time. The quality of the construction is absolutely perfect. Ryan is very professional and we would recommend him to all of our friends.
