Roger Serfass of Village Wood Designs creates furniture and accessories as well as two and three-dimensional art in domestic hardwoods and exotic wood veneers combining the techniques of marquetry, inlay, and lamination. Since 1976, he and his wife Deborah Fonash have maintained a studio workshop in Lancaster County, PA. Here, they design and build unique wall units, bookcases, shelves, boxes, and wall art. Influences include George Nakashima, Frank Lloyd Wright, the Shakers, and the Art Deco movement. Artistic woodwork that is well-crafted, sustainable, and affordable is a primary goal.
Roger has been a juried member of the PA Guild of Craftsmen for 45 years, receiving the “Craftsman of Distinction” Award in 2014. He has exhibited and sold his woodwork at over 200 juried craft fairs in PA, DE, MD, and VA since 1975.
