Amy Markanda

I am a Toronto-based furniture designer and fabricator specializing in luxury, high-end pieces crafted with exceptional care. My work blends modernist principles with timeless craftsmanship, resulting in furniture that is functional, refined, and built to last. I design and produce each piece locally, using high-quality materials and detail-driven fabrication techniques.

Design and project management professional with 15 years’ experience in millwork, furniture, and luxury residential construction. Skilled in overseeing full project lifecycles, coordinating trades, sourcing quality materials, and delivering high-end custom work. Currently expanding into local manufacturing and small-scale development in the GTA.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Communication, Culture, and Information Technology from the University of Toronto, a Diploma in Furniture Design from Sheridan College, and a microcredential in Mass Timber Construction from BCIT. I've also completed a Project Management Certificate from the University of Toronto, giving me a strong foundation in both creative design and technical project delivery.
