About.

GAVN WOOD is a small, detail-driven carpentry studio based in St. Stephen, MN. I specialize in one-of-a-kind cabinetry and furniture that blend function, craftsmanship, and natural materials. Every piece is built in-house — from design to finish — using premium hardwoods, durable finishes, and quality hardware. Whether you’re refreshing a kitchen, adding storage, or finishing a basement bar, I’ll help turn your ideas into custom pieces that feel like they’ve always belonged.

Let’s Work Together

Have a project in mind? Let’s work together to bring it to life. At GAVN WOOD, every piece is thoughtfully designed and handcrafted to fit your space, style, and needs. Whether you’re looking for custom cabinetry, built-ins, furniture, or a completely unique creation, we’ll guide you through the process—from the first idea to the final installation. Let’s create something beautiful, functional, and built to last.

Function, Craftsmanship, and Love all come together just right!
