For many years, I've admired the woodwork at Naked Aspen Designs. When we finished the construction of our home in Tabernash, we wanted furnishings that would be handcrafted by a local artisan, by somebody who could incorporate local materials, themes and design in a unique, personalized manner. Rob Peeters was our man.
Rob first made four barstools, fashioned from beetle kill pine. He was able to showcase the natural pine beauty, highlighted by the blue-grey streaks from the pine beetles. The barstools are both comfortable and beautiful.
Next Rob built several bed frames for us, including a king (beetle kill), a queen (wormy maple), and custom-fitted bunks (knotty alder). While his design puts the natural wood colors and hues at the fore, the quality of his craft is apparent from the feel of stability. Close inspection reveals his attention to detail in woodcraft, which makes the furniture interesting and more fun to use. Rob also built a corner desk from wormy maple, which was beautiful and crafted exactly to specification.

Read moreWe have purchased a number of items for our home from Naked Aspen Designs over the past six years, and each one is carefully crafted and beautiful. The quality is of the highest level. Given his great work and deep dedication to quality products, we commissioned three different custom pieces from Rob: a media cabinet and two 9+ foot long wooden books shelves. The pieces were of unusual size and specs and are absolutely gorgeous. The quality of the wood and handiwork is absolutely the best. Rob worked with us to specify and confirm measurements, details, and features and made sure that everything was perfect. We couldn’t be happier with everything we have gotten from Rob and are so pleased to support this local business. Whether shopping for small gifts like candles or decorative items or larger pieces of unique, high quality wood home furnishings, Rob will deliver great products with kind, thoughtful, professional commitment. We are so grateful that we have Naked Aspen Designs in our community and a phenomenal...
