As a real estate developer, I look for quality and potential in both the properties I purchase and those with whom I work. Over the past several years we've had The Wood Cycle work in the family room, library, foyer and dining room of our existing home. Each time they've successfully incorporated their new work into the existing designs. We trust them enough to simply give them the general concept and rely on them to create a tasteful and fitting final product. The Wood Cycle has a clear passion for woodworking and it shows in their work.
We own two small businesses, where attention to detail is critical. When we started construction on a new home, we consulted with The Wood Cycle on cabinetry. We told them we were looking for a simple Shaker or Mission look and that we liked cherry and maple. The Wood Cycle took this idea throughout the house, with a blend of cherry and maple not only in our cabinets, but in the trim, fireplace and an entertainment center. They worked well with both us and our builder and created exactly what we wanted even though we didn't know how to describe it.
When we moved to the area we were looking for a cabinetmaker to upgrade the house we purchased. We moved from a home with beautiful cherry cabinetry, but in this house the cherry was covered with a dark waxy finish and other cabinets were painted. The Wood Cycle brought in new cabinetry where the character of the grain was clearly visible and they used maple and curved wood to accent the cherry. They were also able to incorporate matching granite tiles in a room divider between the kitchen and family room. Over the course of their work, the staff have become personal friends, with whom we trust our kids. The quality and uniqueness of their work assures they'll be back to do more.
