AWD of Savannah designs and handcrafts custom cabinetry, furniture and architectural woodwork for homes throughout Savannah and the Lowcountry.
AWD was founded in 2009 by Harley Ashbaugh and Winston Maynard, carrying forward the standards they learned from their mentor, Bill Owens of Architectural Woodworking and Design.
The company started in a single-car garage during the recession — tools rolled out each morning, rolled back in each night. It grew on a simple belief: truly custom work should never be limited by a catalog.
Today our team designs, builds, finishes and installs cabinetry, furniture and architectural elements for distinctive homes across the region.
Harley came to Savannah in 1997 to attend SCAD, earning a BFA in Interior Design with minors in Furniture Design and Architectural History. Yacht woodworking, kitchen design and furniture making all shape AWD’s design-driven approach.
A lifelong friend of Harley’s, Winston developed his woodworking and finishing skills alongside him under Bill Owens. His eye for color, finish and the smallest details shows in every piece that leaves the shop.
Adrian brought years of construction experience and worked his way from the shop floor to leadership. Today he trains and manages the team that builds every AWD project.
Truly custom. No stock sizes or catalog boxes — every piece is drawn for its space, in the wood species and finish you choose.
Built in our Savannah shop. Design, building, finishing and installation are all handled by our own craftsmen.
Design first. We take cues from the architecture, the way the room is used and the smallest details, so the work feels like it was always part of the house.
