About Droegenot
A small studio focused on solid wood furniture that feels calm in a room and holds up over time.
How the studio started
Droegenot was founded in 2018 in Portland, Oregon, after years of working in larger production shops and design offices. The founders wanted a practice that moved at the speed of careful making rather than the speed of volume.
The name is a family name from the founders’ history — kept deliberately quiet, like the work itself. The studio does not chase trends or seasonal collections. Instead we refine a focused set of designs and build them to order.
Most of our clients are people furnishing their own homes. A smaller share are architects and interior designers specifying pieces for residential projects across the United States.
What guides the work
Material honesty
We prefer solid hardwoods and finishes that let the wood age naturally. What you see is what the piece is made of.
Restraint in design
Details are considered, not decorative for their own sake. The goal is a piece that supports the room rather than dominating it.
Direct relationship
When you commission a piece, you speak with the studio. There is no large sales layer between you and the people who design and build the work.
Where we work and ship
The studio and workshop are located in Portland, Oregon. Pieces are built here and shipped to clients across the United States.
- White oak, walnut, ash, and maple as primary woods
- Natural oil and hardwax oil finishes
- Custom sizing on most designs
- White-glove delivery available in many metro areas
