When you embark on your cabinetry project with Benchcraft, you will experience seamless design, distinct fabrication, and precise installation. We value building strong relationships with you, our partner in the process, which allows us to develop an understanding of your unique needs. At Benchcraft, we use both traditional and cutting-edge construction methods, detailed workmanship, and are dedicated to the craft of woodworking. We surround ourselves with an outstanding community of fellow cabinetmakers, architects, engineers, designers, contractors, and builders, with whom we consult to ensure the precision and quality of the final project, and we are always looking forward to opportunities to collaborate with others who share our values.
Laura Fuoco, founder and owner of Benchcraft, honed her skills and workmanship at the renowned North Bennet Street School, developing expertise in Cabinet and Furniture Making and learning the importance of hand skills and a profound understanding of the fundamentals of woodworking. She prides herself on incorporating this knowledge into current and contemporary work, specializing in technical veneer skills, to create heirloom-quality cabinetry. Her appreciation for period furniture grew immensely as she came to understand the demands of making historically accurate pieces, although she won't deny her affection for mid-century furniture and modern design! Laura has two children and lives in Chestnut Hill. You can find her hiking with her dog Rookie, mountain biking, weightlifting, or doing just about anything active—including racing performance motorcycles at the racetrack for fun! She has curated many furniture shows at venues including the Lexington Arts and Crafts Center, the Fuller Craft Museum, and the Old Schwamb Mill. Her work has been exhibited at the Concord Museum, and she has appeared as a guest woodworker on Tommy Mac's Rough Cut TV show, showcasing her talent with veneer.
We at Benchcraft are committed to learning about your goals, needs, and preferences, all while exceeding expectations. We love what we do and would love to share that with you.
