Joshua Bennett holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Sculpture from from Virginia Commonwealth University. While there he was the recipient of a Virginia Museum of Fine Arts Fellowship among other awards. After receiving his degree he went on to work as a set builder on Steven Spielberg's "Lincoln," AMC's "Turn" and numerous theatrical productions. His experience as a prop-maker and set-builder along with his education in fine art make him a multi-talented and dynamic creator, ready to design or build with equal proficiency.
Joshua's work bridges a variety of genres: set-design, furniture design, large outdoor sculpture and more. His use of materials is equally varied: ranging from foam and resin to steel and wood. In his own words, he works in the medium he needs to. His love of making extends to his private life, where he maintains an extensive collection of vintage how-to books and manuals.

For Loft LadderIt was great working with Joshua. The ladder he made is super solid and looks exactly the way I wanted. He was very helpful in the design process. We picked it up at his shop - hence no shipping. Very good value for money. I would work with him again.

For Floating Platform Bed (Frame Only)I have no complaints at all about this project of Joshua's workmanship and demeanor. He built my couch and bed just as I wanted it. It's perfect! Then he delivered it and set it up in my home as well. While he was making the items, he sent me emails and photos of his work in progress, keeping me informed the entire time. I have no problem or hesitation recommending him and his work to others.

For Bed ProjectWe commissioned Joshua to make a twin size bed for our son in solid cherry wood. Joshua designed a lovely bed that included metal trim painted a deep red. The bed arrived yesterday and it is beautiful!
Joshua modified his original design based on our feedback and was great throughout the entire process. We plan to use him again for another project.
I highly recommend him.
