Sunhouse Craft
Sunhouse Craft was started by designer/maker Cynthia Main as a place to combine her background as a fabricator with a strong desire to find sustainable and harmonious ways of working. Joined later by Doug Stubbs, they craft each piece by hand in their Kentucky studio. Each work weaves together crafting traditions of Appalachia, natural materials, and timeless design. The end result are tools that bring back a sense of everyday magic into our daily work and chores.
Sunhouse Craft cares about sourcing. Working directly with local forests and farms, tanneries, sustainable wood suppliers, and raw goods manufactures for sustainable raw materials to make their work is a priority. When they cant source locally, they purchase the raw materials, and use some of the proceeds from their sales to help fund farmers to raise needed crops and work towards a craft with a strong sense of place. They are working to help regenerate a thriving, local economy.
Sunhouse Craft believes people deserve to be part of a tradition of land connected manufacturing and businesses like theirs are helping to recreate a thriving rural economy.
