"Simplicity

Welcome
My name is Steve
Gougeon and I run a small custom woodworking shop in
Ashfield, Massachusetts. We specialize in cabinetry and
furniture built for your space, taste, and needs. Coming
from a family of carpenters and craftspeople and with many
years of building professionally, including furniture,
cabinets, remodeling, and general contracting, we are ready
to help you make the most of your space.
Cabinetry: We can outfit your
kitchen, bath, home office, entry, or other living space
with cabinetry built specifically for you, often at costs
similar to modular, factory built cabinets. We can work
with plans that you or your contractor provide, or help you
design your space. Check out the cabinet gallery for
examples of past work.

Furniture: Do you wish you could
find a bookshelf that would fit in the corner, or a chest
with just the right size drawers, or a table and chairs for
your kids? We can build items of furniture that will fit in
your home, suit your style, and do exactly the job that you
want. You can choose freestanding or built-in furniture. We
can work off pictures or brainstorm with you to build
exactly what you want. Check out the furniture gallery for
some examples.
Design - Build and Remodeling: with extensive
experience in all aspects of remodeling, if needed, we can
see your remodel through from design, to framing, to trim
and finishes. Our focus here is on energy efficient,
super-insulated, healthy environments, built in as
sustainable a manner as we can.
Green Building: We strive to build
products that are healthy for you and our environment by
using natural and water based finishes and glues. Whenever
possible, we prefer to use woods native to this region,
and/or woods that are certified by the Forest Stewardship
Council. We use
formaldehyde-free veneer plywoods, and durable,
long-lasting hardware.
Contact us for a free consultation to discuss what kind of
project you have in mind.
