Dustin Kroft, Founder and Creative Director of KROFT, did not receive a formal education in furniture design but he describes himself as a life long student of design. Fuelled on a childhood obsession with visual arts and an adolescence touring and studying the art museums of Europe, Kroft always had an appreciation for design. After realizing he wasn't fulfilled in his previous business, Kroft so
ld his company to pursue his life long dream of designing and building furniture. With a lot of faith and a burning desire, he set up his first wood shop and built his inaugural collection which debuted at Toronto's Interior Design Show. Founded in 2014, KROFT operates as a dynamic design studio that designs and manufactures furniture for both commercial and residential environments. Their wares can be found in retail stores but they also deal directly with the Architecture and Design community in Toronto, Canada and abroad. Their product line is supported by a unique and high quality bespoke service and they have been commissioned for projects ranging from residential to retail. The focus of their manufacturing is on solid wood furniture but they work with glass, metal, plastic, stone and more. They have considerable capacity for larger scale projects with a shop that spans almost 10,000 square feet.
