Our Story
The Spirit of FAVN
At the intersection of technical obsession and quiet craftsmanship sits FAVN. The name itself is a call to action: to embrace with both hands. It’s a philosophy that guides everything we create—from the initial "mad scientist" engineering of a new geometric series to the final, quiet hours of hand-refinement.
Precision by Design. Soul by Hand. Erik waffles between the two. One moment, he is a precision-obsessed engineer, utilizing CNC technology to achieve the sharp, repeating "Terrace" lines inspired by Okanagan vineyards. The next, he is the quiet perfectionist, hand-buffing a Black Walnut or Russian Olive surface until it reaches our signature "silk-touch" finish.
Trees with a History We don’t just source wood; we save stories. Our limited Russian Olive Series was born from an ornamental tree destined for the woodchipper. Instead of disappearing, its unique grain was salvaged and transformed into a contemporary heirloom. By working with locally salvaged timber, we ensure that the history of the Okanagan remains part of the modern home.
The Future is an Open Grain We don’t claim to know exactly where this path leads. We are simply following the grain—obsessively refining our process, one architectural curve at a time.
Modern Heirlooms. Locally Salvaged. Architecturally Inspired.
