ABOUT US
Tim Lorenzo, Lumber Cat.
Tim loves sawdust. He has celebrated its creation in modern penthouses, in historic clock towers, in the homes of humans and animals, and in scraps reworked into items of use and beauty. The presence of hundred year old wood shavings hidden safely behind walls and tucked under stairs inspires Tim to create timeless pieces that capture the temporary nature of life. In doing so, he leaves a trail of sawdust behind.
Tim collaborates with other local artists and craftspeople to provide jobs and create a community network for other creative folk in the area. He feels very strongly about giving back to the local arts community and boosting other artists' businesses. Including more artists, with a variety of unique skillsets, on the Lumber Cats jobs has allowed them to take on a broader scope of projects and so the collaborative, creative workforce has become an integral and essential aspect of Lumber Cats' operations.
Years of work in Boston area luxury homes showed Tim that many homeowners would like to create a comfortable and unique experience in their space that makes their investment stand out from the others. Lumber Cats specializes in creating those unique artistic experiences through sculpted wall and ceiling panels, as well as home furnishings and sculptures, small and large. Individualized design, hand-crafted and tailored for your space.
HANDMADE EXCELLENCE,
UNIQUE TO YOUR SPACE
