Building: An Organic Coffee Table

Join us for an exciting hands-on workshop at SF Duka, where you’ll learn how to build a stunning wooden coffee table with a unique, organic design. Guided by our expert instructors, you’ll transform raw materials into a beautiful piece of furniture that will add a touch of modern elegance to your home.

In this workshop, you’ll get to shape and assemble a minimalist coffee table, featuring smooth curves and a natural wood finish that showcases the material’s natural beauty. This piece will not only serve as a functional table but also as a stylish conversation starter in any living space.
