John Luke Bio:

"Designing and building furniture is something that I have been doing for around three decades. First as an avocation, part time while I worked for a major airline as a way of relaxation and to bring in some extra income while being laid off or on strike. After several stress related heart attacks I took a very early retirement and went into furniture building full time. It is very satisfying to take rough sawn lumber, bring out the beauty and character of the wood, and turn it into an attractive and functional piece of furniture.

 

In my designs I emphasize clean simple lines, a careful balance of form and function, and a synthesis of traditional furniture with a modern use of materials, design and presentation. I use a variety of exposed joinery and pay careful attention to craftsmanship and detailing. I attempt to highlight the beauty of the wood by attending carefully to the color, intensity, contrast and wood figure. My work is finished with either a varnish or lacquer. Both are applied to create a low luster, wood textured, extremely durable finish that emulates a traditional oil finish without the drawbacks of oil."
