Joshua Duerrstein
Obviously I make and design furniture, but how did I (Joshua Duerrstein) end up here, showing you these things I make, on the internet?
I once thought making coffee tables would be cool but was most likely a foolish endeavour; So I decided I should instead pursue a far more employable line of education, STUDYING ENGLISH LITERATURE. This did not work out. And I discovered that making coffee tables and other things, out of wood, was not only something you could learn, but also something I could make money doing (like a semi reasonable amount of livable wage kind of money), AND I could probably hopefully improve the lives of other human beings while doing it. So I went off to Sheridan College, got my butt whipped in the furniture and design boot camp they have set up there and THEN went and moved to Winnipeg where a quasi family connection landed me a JOB where I get to build things ALL OF THE TIME and design things SOME OF THE TIME and then make those things which I have designed. I’ve tried to do a good job of all of this. I hope you like my furniture (and things).
