Todd McAneeley loves working with wood. He has been involved in woodworking in some form or another for 20 years. His interest started by taking a furniture making course in Duncan. He knew immediately that he would become a professional furniture maker.

He still is making furniture for a living but he has expanded his repertoire and is also a wood artist. His wood wall art is representative and abstract.

Todd enjoys nature and many of his pieces show that. He is proud that the wood he uses in from salvaged trees from Vancouver Island.

John Lore developed a love of design while doing product design in Edmonton, AB with a group of Industrial designers during the 1980s. For the past 20 years he has been working with wood, beginning with twig and log furniture and moving into a contemporary West Coast style.

His company, Live Edge Design is the leader in ‘West Coast Natural’ furniture design, and, working with interior designers from around the world, strives to meet high quality standards while having a low environmental impact. Trees tell us their stories. Our job is to relate that story to our customers as beautifully as we can. Our vision brings the materials, craftsmen and customers together to collaborate and create the finest of functional art. By honoring the tree we hope to enrich those it touches on its’ journey through Live Edge and beyond.
