Francesco, craftsman and founder of Materia Woodcraft

About me

My name is Francesco, and I'm the founder of Materia Woodcraft: today a craftsman working with wood, though it wasn't always that way. For over 20 years I worked as a web designer, chasing the same obsession with precision that I now put into wood instead of pixels.

My love for wood started as a kid, watching my father and grandfather work with planes and chisels. That habit sat on hold for 20 years. Today Materia Woodcraft is the place where that passion matters again: modern tools and smart techniques, applied with the same care as back then.

Custom work for your home

Custom furniture, shelving, built-in walls, pieces made to request: I design and build them. If you have an exact measurement in mind that you never find in a shop, that's where I come in. I also restore antique furniture. Family pieces, brought back to their original beauty.

Ready-made handcrafted pieces

In the catalog you'll find handmade wooden objects: home accents, gift ideas, small furniture built to last. Each piece is made on its own, one at a time. No two objects are ever truly identical. That's the cost, and the value, of not using a mold.

On the blog you'll find over 80 practical guides on measurements, tools, and techniques. They come from the same problems I solve every day in the workshop, not from a desk.
