BranchesFurniture

Since graduating Oregon State University in 1999 with a degree in mechanical engineering, I knew I wanted to own a business and do something other than engineering. It took me 14 years of working in cubicle land before starting Branches Furniture, with my wife Alyse. It took another few years of working in the evenings and weekends at our business before I quit my desk job and dove full-time into making special pieces.

At the start of Branches Furniture, we focused primarily on refinishing vintage pieces. As our skills, tools and passion for building increased, we began designing and building our own furniture. This has been a natural progression since I’ve enjoyed building things for most of my life.

We love using reclaimed and local materials and draw inspiration from industrial designs to modern and mid century. We build with steel, wood, fabric and glass. Types of pieces include: side, coffee, sofa, and dining tables, lighting, storage and shelving, desks, benches, beds, wine racks, cabinets and just about anything else you can imagine.

We are thankful for each of our customers and are grateful to work on a single piece or collection of pieces for you. I know I would still be in a cubicle if it weren’t for the support of people that love unique creations and support small businesses. Thank you for considering us for your purchase.

Sincerely,
Joel Knudsen
