About Us

At Workshop Detroit, we believe furniture should tell a story — of craftsmanship, of community, and of materials given a second life. From our workshop in the heart of Detroit, we design and build handcrafted reclaimed wood furniture that blends timeless design with honest, hardworking durability.

Built by Hand. Built to Last.

Every dining table, bench, coffee table, and butcher block countertop we create starts with carefully sourced reclaimed lumber, salvaged from Detroit area houses and commercial buildings This wood has already lived a life — supporting factories, homes, and buildings that shaped Detroit’s legacy. We honor that history by transforming it into solid wood furniture made for modern living.

Our team of skilled woodworkers crafts each piece by hand, paying close attention to grain patterns, character marks, and structural integrity. The result is heirloom-quality furniture that’s as strong as it is beautiful. Whether it’s a reclaimed wood dining table built for family gatherings or a custom conference table designed for a collaborative workspace, every piece is made with intention and built to stand the test of time.

Rooted in Detroit Craftsmanship

Detroit is a city defined by makers, builders, and innovators — and that spirit lives in everything we do. Our workshop operates with the same grit and pride that built this city. We don’t mass-produce furniture. We build it one piece at a time, using traditional woodworking techniques combined with thoughtful, modern design.

Our signature Workshop Legacy Stamp, hand-applied to many of our pieces, marks the Detroit origin of the reclaimed wood. It’s our way of preserving history while creating something new — a connection between past and present that lives right in your home.

Sustainable Materials, Meaningful Design

Sustainability is more than a buzzword for us. By using reclaimed wood, we reduce demand for newly harvested lumber while giving forgotten materials a second life. Each knot, nail mark, and weathered grain line adds warmth and authenticity that can’t be replicated with new wood.

Our designs balance rustic character with clean, modern lines, making our furniture at home in a range of interiors — from urban lofts to modern farmhouses. Customers come to us for solid wood dining tables, reclaimed wood coffee tables, butcher block countertops, and custom furniture built with real materials and real craftsmanship.

Furniture Made for Gathering

We believe the best furniture brings people together. A dining table should host celebrations, quiet mornings, and everything in between. A bench should be sturdy enough for daily life and beautiful enough to anchor a room. Our goal is to create pieces that become part of your story — furniture that ages gracefully and grows more meaningful with time.

We work with homeowners, interior designers, restaurants, offices, and retail spaces to build custom wood furniture tailored to their needs. From large community tables to one-of-a-kind statement pieces, our work is designed to be lived with, not just looked at.

Community Matters

Being part of Detroit means giving back to the community that inspires us. We’re proud to support local initiatives and partner with organizations that help strengthen neighborhoods and create opportunity. Through select projects and collaborations, such as our Love For Humanity Dining Table, we strive to ensure our work contributes not just to beautiful spaces, but to a stronger city as well.
