The Studio

Three craftspeople,
one workbench.

A shop opened in 2014 by Philippe Lachance, a cabinetmaker trained in Victoriaville. Every piece is drawn, cut, assembled and finished by the same hands.

The company

A drawing before the saw, never the other way around.

Trained in cabinetmaking at the Centre de formation de Victoriaville, Philippe spent eight years in a production shop before opening his own in 2014. He draws every piece to scale before touching a board.

Three craftspeople in the shop: Philippe on design and assembly, Marc-Olivier on sawing and gluing, Rosalie on finishing. The wood comes from Eastern Townships sawmills — maple, birch, red oak, white pine.

  • 1 Meeting and measurements. At the workshop or your home, free. We look at the space, the budget, the style.
  • 2 Technical drawing and quote. Scale plan with exact dimensions, wood species and firm price, delivered within a week.
  • 3 Built in the workshop. Every step is photographed; you get updates as the piece is built.
  • 4 Delivery and installation. The team installs and adjusts on site — nothing is delivered flat-pack for you to assemble.

Three pairs of hands,
one shop.

Nothing is subcontracted: every piece that leaves the workshop was drawn, cut, assembled and finished by these three craftspeople.

Sawing and gluing

He picks the boards from the kiln, cuts, planes and glues the panels before assembly.

Rosalie
Finish

Sanding, stain and varnish: she prepares color samples on your wood species before finishing the piece.
