My grandfather was a beekeeper and I spent a lot of time with him as a boy. He built his own hives and I would help him and this is where my passion for working with wood comes from.
After 20 years of working in Italy I returned in 2016 to Valcea with the very best Italian woodworking equipment and a strong desire to establish my own brand – Buha Wood. The team added a talented woodworker with more than 30 years of experience in 2017. Since then we have been growing our portfolio in the business to business market as well as business to consumer.
We love taking on new challenges and developing new designs to serve the purpose and aesthetics of office spaces. Big projects are challenging but extremely rewarding. Such is the case of completing the furnishings of an entire 15 room, luxury hotel in Italy.
On the other side there is always the pleasure of interacting with the end consumer and bringing to life the customised item they need for their personal space. Staying in contact with the market is what spices up our activity. We get to know so many people and be a part of their world through the objects that are going to enrich their houses.
I love to give new life to old wood, we have made some wonderful, huge mirrors – 2m x 1m – from the door frames of one old house and I think these are pretty special. Buha Wood has a portfolio of beds, bedside tables, tables, chests of drawers and stools.
