My name is Max Johnson, my journey into woodworking began several years ago when I discovered my passion for crafting furniture. Once I had created my very first (not quite perfect!) table, I never looked back. Fuelled by a love for the entire process, I quickly honed my skills in creating custom pieces, transforming raw, natural materials into beautiful, functional works of art.

My passion for woodworking initially began with creating furniture for family members. It gave me the opportunity to share my craft with those closest to me, while also gifting them unique, custom pieces that transformed their living spaces. The joy of crafting these pieces and seeing how they enriched their homes is what drives me today. Now I bring that same personal service to you—creating beautiful furniture that fits perfectly into your life.

My primary principles for Palatable Woodwork are built on craftsmanship, quality, and a personalized service. I will personally ensure each piece is created with care, a meticulous attention to detail, and a genuine love for the craft, ensuring that what we make is more than just furniture—it’s a timeless piece that becomes part of your home.
