Crafting Timeless Woodwork Since 2009
Boreal Woodworks is a Toronto-based artisan workshop specializing in custom furniture and architectural woodwork. We blend traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design to create pieces that stand the test of time.
Our Story
Founded in 2009 by master craftsman Alexandre Dubois, Boreal Woodworks began as a small workshop in a converted garage. What started as a passion project quickly evolved into a respected name in Toronto's design community.
Today, our team of skilled artisans continues to honor traditional woodworking techniques while embracing innovative approaches to design. Each piece we create tells a story – of the wood itself, the hands that shaped it, and the space it will inhabit.
We believe in sustainability and responsible sourcing. Our materials are carefully selected from certified suppliers, and we pride ourselves on creating pieces designed to last generations.
