About Us

Jeanette Moore is a talented and innovative furniture designer and artist. Since receiving her MFA in furniture design in 2006, she has designed and built custom residential furniture in the Sarasota, Englewood and Venice areas. With a background in sculpture and the arts, Jeanette's designs are simple and beautiful, and can be designed to fit any existing decor if needed. While she looks forward to challenges that each new client and project bring, she also enjoys completing smaller projects for charitable donations. Her work has been showcased in several local auctions to help raise funds for the All Faiths Food Bank, the YMCA and SERTOMA, among others.

While working primarily in wood, Jeanette's designs also utilize a multitude of other materials, including steel, aluminum, glass, plastic, upholstery and stone. Her personal design is minimalist with the addition of modern twists and subtle surprises. She is well versed in the various styles of furniture, and is able to match existing styles or design new ones.

Jeanette's professional affiliations include:

  •  American Society of Furniture Designers (ASFD)
  • Furniture Society 
  • Sarasota Wood Turners  
  • Venice Area Young Professional 
  • Venice Art Center
  • National Association of Professional Women (NAPW)
