With decades of experience and an obsession for detail, Kress Wooodworking is your partner in design for custom crafted cabinets, furniture and artisan crafted pieces for your home and business. Our builders are artisans with a passion for old world craftsmanship and a love of the finest woods and veneers. Classically trained at Boston's respected North Bennet Street School, Peter Kress has built this business over 30 years as a trusted woodworking contractor and designer. As an artisan with a passion for the medium, he thoroughly enjoys designing for his clients using domestic and global finishes and woods. Integrity, dependability and communication along with his friendly, laid back vibe put clients at ease when embarking on new projects.

 

"When I'm working with a client, no matter how large or small the project is, I feel like I'm giving a piece of myself to them, my time, my passion for the art. I'm not just collecting a check and moving on to the next one.”

 

Peter resides with his wife Jen and ridiculously friendly “shop dog” in a rural corner of Southbridge, Massachusetts. In his spare time he can be found in the shop creating new pieces using his favorite mediums such as highly figured woods, exotic hardwoods and exquisite veneers.
