Materials
The Foundation of Craftsmanship
A thoughtfully curated selection of exotic and domestic hardwoods sourced for their singular beauty, integrity, and character. Dean offers clients not just materials—
Material Philosophy
Dean treats each board as an opportunity to elevate form and function. His material philosophy includes:
No two species behave identically. Dean selects materials based on their ability to complement a project’s intended use, environment, and visual language.
Whenever possible, materials are obtained from certified suppliers and mills with responsible forestry practices. Legacy should never come at the cost of the environment.
