About
From 2016 - 2020, Hyde Woodworking products could be found in Cream City Restoration and Elements East, two retail locations in Milwaukee, WI.
​
After COVID, Matt and Zak shifted to custom commissions for private clients.
Their styles converge around Mid Century Modern, Contemporary and Craftsman motifs. Each piece is custom made and never reproduced.
