In his work, Paul Biehler has transcended the separation between art and fine woodworking to create another dimension of furniture as art and art as furniture.
His talent for transforming ephemeral forms into functional art is demonstrated in each piece that he creates.
His incorporation of forms found in nature such as the spiral, the arch and the circle, take his creations into the realm of the “everyday sacred”.

He has taken a solitary and disciplined path to forge his relationship with the creative process. His designs combine the universality of form with his personal vision and this, along with over thirty years of perfecting his technique, brings forth the pieces of furniture art that are uniquely identifiable as his.
Working with the finest woods available, Paul Biehler transforms the woods into furniture that honors their magnificence and preserves them for posterity. His respect and love for the materials are the heart of his work and imbue his pieces with a vibrancy that overarches the craftsmanship. Beyond the stunning technique and the finishes that his work is known for, it is the aliveness of each piece that attracts attention and appreciation. Viewers are instinctively drawn to his creations with a felt sense of their power and integrity; their great and simple beauty.
When asked to describe his work, he responds, “I make things”. True, but it is more, much more, than that.
