Designer and Builder
It all begins with an idea-
Jesse Fisher designs and builds unique, one of a kind, custom furniture that enhance any environment.
Beautiful things for everyday life.
Jesse combines aesthetics with function, carefully considering all details of a piece of furniture. The wood is hand chosen for each piece with each board selected with intention and purpose. The species, color, texture and direction of grain are carefully thought out. The desire for it to enhance the space it will reside in is of the utmost importance.
Jesse’s woodworking began at a young age working along side his grandfather, a master boatbuilder in Victoria British Columbia. He pursued woodworking and shop classes throughout secondary school.
