Desk With Wings
This desk utilizes a design element I call "wings". It's made from hard maple, black walnut and cherry. The walnut legs give it an elegant feel, the wings bring a whimsical note and the drawer handle borders on outrageous.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
I've been making art and music since I was a kid. I've been woodworking for about 15 years. In 2011, I started my woodworking business as Urban Zebra Designs in Keizer, Oregon. In 2013, I completed a two-year mastery program with master woodworker Gary Rogowski in Portland, Oregon.
While I have made traditional furniture, my original designs tend to be modern, eclectic and unusual. I use mostly local materials and quality hardware. Most of my pieces have been larger furniture pieces, but recently I've been making boxes.
In 2014, I retired after 33 years in the computer industry. This allows me to devote much more time to making sawdust.

For Aquarium stand4.8It was great working with Jon. He was very responsive to my ideas and did a great job with the design. The finished project looks amazing. I would definitely work with him again.

For Angus' Supply cabinet/table for massage studio; end table4.8Just wonderful from start to finish! Jon came to my studio to see what I wanted and where; we discussed the design and he had drawings to me in about a week. We discussed wood choices and design features and then he got to work. He worked with my schedule to arrange a completion date. When the rails for the drawers weren't working right, he bumped back the completion date, but he explained what was happening and handled it professionally. He didn't want to deliver a cabinet that didn't work to his standard or my expectations. He delivered everything today and I'm a very satisfied customer! I recommend Jon without reservation!
