Unique designs, premium hardwoods, artisan craftsmanship and attention to detail - our handcrafted custom tables are made to last for a lifetime of memories.
ESTABLISHED 2018
Great Lakes Farmhouse.
In 2017, a simple aspiration to build a farmhouse table for my family evolved into a chance to extend that craftsmanship to other family members and friends. Building trust with each project, I gradually gained confidence in my skills.
In early 2018, my dad and I formally introduced Great Lakes Farmhouse. Originating as a small-scale custom table workshop with a local Michigan focus, it blossomed into a hub for premium, enduring farmhouse tables. Our clientele expanded beyond state borders, with customers ordering directly from our website, and our tables now grace homes across America.

OUR ROOTS
Father & son.
Hello, I'm David Zupec, both the owner and furniture designer behind our craft. My fascination with woodworking dates back to my childhood, a passion that has only deepened over the years. The entire process of conceptualizing, milling, and shaping raw wood into exquisite, custom made furniture holds a special place in my heart.
My dad, a retired engineer and a seasoned craftsman, stands as my enduring inspiration and biggest supporter throughout this venture. During my early years, I was a constant presence by his side, absorbing the intricacies of his work in his workshop. Over the years, he has crafted numerous beautiful pieces of furniture, adorning our home and creating cherished pieces for my mother.
CRAFTSMANSHIP
Quality & detail.
Each of our custom tables is meticulously crafted, placing a strong emphasis on exceptional quality and attention to detail. Our distinct plank-style tables, crafted by hand, are made from locally sourced hardwoods, with the option of rustic distressed features. We embrace the inherent beauty in the cracks, knots, and charming imperfections.
Every cut and detail is a manifestation of our passion and love for creating truly unique pieces. Employing the finest hardwoods and techniques, we guarantee a stunning, enduring piece of furniture that will be cherished for generations.
TRADITION
Faith & family.
Raised in the Catholic faith, our home has always centered around the importance of Jesus and family. Evenings were devoted to gathering around the dining table, sharing meals, and uniting as a family to grow, give thanks, and bond. This belief underscores our conviction that our tables are more than mere furniture—they are the heart of the home.
When crafting a custom table, our aim goes beyond creating a beautiful piece for a house. We aspire to instill a sense of inspiration for families to frequent the table, to extend invitations, to share their hearts, and to create lasting memories filled with laughter and love. The table, for us, symbolizes unity and the making of cherished moments. It is this vision that motivates us daily as we construct these pieces in our workshop.
We hope Great Lakes Farmhouse can be a part of your family's story.
– David Zupec, Owner and Furniture Designer
