Living spaces don't always lend themselves to sacred spaces – especially if your one place for rest and meditation is also your home office or entertainment room.

The Respite Woodshop makes furniture that helps people integrate a sacred space into their current living space. We use only domestic and certified tropical hardwoods and nontoxic finishes, and we incorporate clean, simple design and joinery techniques in our work, offering furnishings that reflect subtlety and serenity.
