Nathan Morgan launched his career in woodworking in Birmingham, England. A third generation woodworker, his experiences in the Cotswold craft traditions of masonry and woodworking strongly influenced his pursuit of fine art carpentry.
He relocated to Louisville, Kentucky in 2000, and has since built a reputation in modern custom design furniture, retail space, cabinetry, and historic renovation. Recent installations include the Wiltshire Pantry on Market, the Home-O-Rama at Locust Creek, the Waterfront Park Place Penthouse, Basa Restaurant, the green building Java, and the Louisville Visual Art Association.
Nathan is committed to utilizing sustainable, green building methods, featuring use of reclaimed and alternative materials locally sourced. His influences blend historic European craftsmanship and the Bauhaus movement in modern furniture design; while his work aims to showcases the seamless, organic beauty of objects forged with the form and function of both the organic material and design space in mind. He recently launched Salvo, a hand to home collective featuring handmade, functional art, which opened in July 2011.
