TiAnna DeGarmo was called to her craft by the whiff of sawdust and the drive of her father.
Now a parent herself (and an inspiration and mentor to other female and nonbinary woodworkers), she returns to the woodshop she called home at the age of 13. While her pieces are designed for relatively small spaces, there’s a sense of grandeur to them that leaves a large impact on any and every space. Fusing Scandinavian mid-century with Asian design influences, her furniture and home goods are sustainably built with a timeless flair for modern homes.
