Petersen Design

Indianapolis, IN
Member since 2016
I have been in the woodworking industry for 20 years now.  My first job was doing remodel work with a neighbor, that developed into a trim business.  I spent several years with him, doing mostly high-end interior trim work in new homes, developing my skills, and love of woodworking and furniture.  After my time with him, I spent many years with various cabinet shops and architectural millwork companies, both in the shop, and behind the desk doing shop drawings.
Ever since getting into it, I have wanted my own furniture shop, but Deep Wood Workshop did not start out that way.  A good friend of mine, who runs an indie record label, approached me about making some wooden box-sets. Doing several of these, in my garage, turned into a serious business, and I have now done well over 2 dozen different box-sets for various record labels. The income from these jobs has allowed me to move from my garage into a real shop, take on custom work of all types, and spend some time making many of the pieces that you see, for sale here. 
I am also very willing, and eager to work with you on a piece of heirloom quality furniture for you and your family. Whether its a dining table, bookshelf, coffee table, or jewelry box, I promise to meet, or exceed your expectations for our custom project.

Zach was great to work with. We expanded the project to add a matching cabinet and both were perfect. Work was completed quickly and the items shipped in robust packaging. Would recommend.

For Custom slide box or equivalent, to hold single bourbon bottle as a gift

Working with Zack was a real pleasure. Communication was excellent all through the project sending pics and updates as he progressed. He was even in close enough proximity to deliver himself. It’s great to have a resource like Petersen Design so close to home. The client was ecstatic with the finished product. This Is a key client of mine having been with them for 25+ years and the job Petersen Design did help maintain that relationship
