In a world driven by mass production, handmade furniture is making a bold return. This session celebrates the growing movement of artisan makers and the renewed appreciation for traditional woodworking, local materials, and storytelling through craft.

We’ll explore how small-scale production has evolved, how it connects with sustainability values, and why consumers are seeking out pieces with soul. From heirloom-quality wood joints to natural finishes and tactile imperfections, artisanal design offers more than just aesthetics—it brings connection.

Attendees will leave with an understanding of how to position artisanal products in a modern marketplace, collaborate with craftspeople, and bring authenticity into branded interiors and curated spaces.
