A man who works with his hands is a laborer. A man who works with his hands and his brain, a craftsman. But a man who works with his hands, his brain and his heart, is an artist.

Pete colling

Pete Colling is the founder and chief artisan builder at CD+B. What started as a passionate hobby for Pete turned into a successful career when in 2008 he built a live-edge slab table from a salvaged piece of oak to be used for display in his wife's boutique. Within an hour of installation, a customer asked if it was for sale- and he's been designing one of a kind pieces and awe-inspiring spaces ever since. In addition to residential projects, Pete’s work can be seen in some of the top restaurants and retailers in the San Francisco Bay Area. He has designed commercial spaces for renown celebrity chef Tyler Florence, as well as curated pieces for Grammy, Oscar and Emmy Award winning artists, athletes and entertainers.

The vast array of felled lumber and salvaged materials inspires Pete to push the boundaries of ethical and sustainable ingenuity, allowing him to continually create new and extraordinary pieces that combine the science of building with the art of design.
