With so many tiles and textures to choose from these days, a kitchen redesign can feel more overwhelming than ever. And when it comes to your countertops, you want to be sure to choose something that’s not only pleasing to the eye but durable. A well-designed kitchen puts function first! So why choose wooden countertops for the kitchen?

When we connected with Toronto interior designer Natalie Chong through Instagram, we were excited to work with her to design and build custom furniture for her clients. So, we wanted to know a little bit more about her life as an interior designer. Here’s what she had to say!

Wondering where to buy lumber in Toronto? We’ve got you covered. Recently, we launched Canadian Hardwood Supplies, where you can now purchase locally-sourced lumber. This new venture was inevitable, as we’ve been sourcing quality lumber from an Ontario Wood Partner for quite some time now and we’re passionate about offering sustainable wood.

A lot goes on behind the scenes at Son of a Woodcutter. The work we do wouldn’t be possible without our awesome team. They’re dedicated and hardworking. They’re passionate about their craft. Will is no exception. We asked him a few questions about his background in woodworking and his role at Son of a Woodcutter. Here’s what happened! 

It’s no secret that mid-century modern furniture has been a trend in the interior design world for a while, and it’s becoming clear that the style has staying power. This trend shows no signs of slowing down.

Over the years we’ve refined the method we use to build our tables. Part of our process involves joining multiple boards together to make a table top. We’re often asked why we’ve chosen to approach it this way – why not just take a big slab of wood?

2018 has flown by and what a year it has been! We started this year off by building our biggest table to date – a 20ft long boardroom table– and finished on a real high note, moving into our massive new space. We thrive on taking on new projects and challenges and this year has been filled with them.

Buying a new boardroom table for your office is no small feat. But a solid, durable boardroom table is a great investment. The way a space is designed can either energize or drain your employees. So if your boardroom table is drab or old, your meetings might feel soul-sucking instead of collaborative and creative.
