Meet Jim Holton

Jim Holton builds custom furniture from custom milled wood, steel and repurposed materials to create contemporary and unique works of functional art. What began as a hobby and creative endeavor has become a vocation that’s attracted the attention of homeowners and businesses looking for one-of-a-kind pieces to enhance their environment. From his home workshop in Southcentral Kentucky, Jim designs and builds in collaboration with clients to realize a shared vision.
What is functional art? To me, it means something that goes beyond its’ designed function and brings pleasure to the user in other ways. I like to think, design, and work with my hands to fabricate. No matter the space, no matter the materials, no matter the ultimate outcome desired, it brings me pleasure to create. So, how can I help you achieve a physical need/goal with a piece of art that serves a purpose in your life? Home, work, public space, whatever the location – I’m ready to go to work! THANK YOU for your consideration and thanks to the many customers over a few short years have trusted to partner with me on their projects!

Hear From Our Satisfied Clients

sUCCESS STORIES

Jim worked with us to build a dining room table for our new home. We knew we wanted a big one that seated at least 10 people for when we have friends and family in town. Jim was awesome to work with! He helped us design the table from start to finish with unique personal touches, always listened to what we wanted, and guided us in the best choices. We love our table and plan to keep it forever. We would recommend Jim Holton Design 10x over!

Having supported Jim’s work for several years, it was an easy decision to utilize his fabrication services after purchasing my first home last year. I greatly appreciated his intentionality in the process, which included clear communication via phone calls, texts, and several in-person consultations to ensure the project met the needs of the space. You’d be hard pressed to find a more passionate, creative, and knowledgeable craftsman!

~ Luke M.

I was tired of the “traditional” conference room table, so I commissioned Jim to create something fresh and unique. His blend of a live edge walnut top and steel base was spot on – and every client comments on what a beautiful table we have!

~ Commercial Office

I’ve had the pleasure of working with Jim on a number of projects for both my home and office. Jim is a true artisan with every project he undertakes and the difference is in the details!

~ Residential & Commercial

For my office meeting table – I wanted something truly unique and Jim delivered! He designed a dynamite box style base with rebar supports and a steel top and it is one of a kind!

~ Commercial Office

Jim is passionate about his work and puts a tremendous amount of care and energy into his projects. Could not recommend him more!
