About Anela deLaveaga

​

I've always loved working in the overlap between design & fabrication. I developed a keen interest in the wooden medium after learning more about the ecological impacts of utilizing sustainable resources. As a keystone of my design education at the College of Environmental Design, I headed the design and construction of a roofdeck at UC Berkeley.  I found skilled craftsmanship to be the foundation of elegant wooden furniture design & fabrication, and bespoke furniture design became a tangible career path after apprenticing  under master woodworker Joseph Kochlacs of Kochlacs Wood in Santa Cruz, CA. In 2018 I relocated to the state of Nevada to launch my design build studio for the Reno/Tahoe populations.

In 2023 I relocated to the Bellingham, WA area for those beautiful, renowned off-leash dog trails, and am currently taking commissions for the residents of the PNW.
