My name is David Bodell.  Thank you for appreciating my artistic designs and visiting my site. I've been doing creative woodworking most of my life.

 

If you have been to the Los Angeles Arboretum, then you have seen my largest work of art- the Zen Deck - which was featured on the cover of Sunset magazine shortly after I designed and built it. Since then, I have been designing and creating unique one-of-a-kind creations that bring antiques back to life. What I enjoy most is taking something most people ignore or take for granted and turning it into something beautifully unexpected to admire. I love mixing woods, metals, and antiques.

​

Feel free to reach out if you have a treasured antique you'd like to repurpose in a customized way or if you have any questions.
