Lutz Furniture is a design and fabrication studio founded by Peter Lutz with a dedication to creating handmade furniture and objects of enduring quality.
After receiving a fine arts degree Peter spent years working as a fabricator in a variety of disciplines: mold-making, production machining, interior yacht carpentry to name a few. Peter infuses a broad range of skills and a deep understanding of material into his designs. The result is furniture that melds traditional techniques with an unadorned aesthetic, accentuating natural materials and handcrafted details.

Cardkits are created by Anther Kiley, a designer and educator in Providence, RI. Inspired by Anther’s own childhood creations, and informed by a practice spanning design, education, and play, Cardkits are designed and produced with careful attention to quality, environmental impact, and the play experiences they facilitate.
Cardkits are designed, manufactured, and packaged at local scale, in Rhode Island. The kits are made with FSC-certified, sustainably sourced paper, and are 100% recyclable.
