About Us

Welcome to Astoria Custom Woodworking—a passionate, locally owned woodworking business based in New Fairfield, Connecticut. We are a fresh new company built on a love for craftsmanship and creativity. At Astoria, we bring timeless artistry to every piece of wood we work with, creating bespoke designs that are as functional as they are beautiful.

Our Story

Astoria Custom Woodworking was founded by someone who began their journey in the arts but found themselves working in the fast-paced world of sales for over 12 years. While sales taught them valuable skills, it wasn’t the creative fulfillment they had always longed for. One day, after years of grinding away in a career that left little room for personal expression, the decision was made to walk away from the corporate world and reconnect with what truly brought joy—creating with their hands.

With a background rooted in artistic vision and a deep appreciation for craftsmanship, the founder made the bold leap to turn their passion into a business. Astoria Custom Woodworking was born out of a desire to combine the precision of woodworking with the creative spirit of the arts. This venture isn’t just about creating custom pieces; it's about rekindling a passion for something meaningful and bringing that to life for clients in the local community.
