Brian Weir creates furniture in his studio located in South Dartmouth, Massachusetts.

Brian’s woodworking career evolved from his experience as a boat carpenter. A desire to refine his woodworking skills and design vocabulary led him to the Center for Furniture Craftsmanship in Rockport Maine. Upon completion of an intensive program, he returned to Dartmouth, filled with enthusiasm, and immediately set up shop.

The design and creation of contemporary furniture is Brian’s main focus. He achieves a balance between aesthetics and functionality within each piece. Traditional joinery and modern woodworking techniques are employed to assure beauty, character, and quality construction. Woods are carefully chosen to enhance each design and accentuate the beauty of the wood. Brian constructs each piece individually using care and expert craftsmanship. Often, one may feel the subtle characteristics left by the hand plane, chisel, or spoke shave, all of which are the mark of the craftsman. These qualities culminate in the creation of elegant furnishings that will last for generations.

Brian’s work is now displayed in national shows, local art festivals, magazines, design journals, and private collections.
