Check out Woodworking for Teambuilding! βBuilt with 100% Malaysian wood
Every project here is built from locally- & sustainably-sourced timber. It's a deliberate choice β it keeps our supply chain shorter and more traceable, and it means the piece you build is made from wood that actually grew close to home.
We're also a 100% Malaysian-run team with our own workshop in Petaling Jaya β not a franchise or an imported concept. Beyond classes, we take on custom furniture commissions and run corporate teambuilding, including HRDF-claimable sessions and CSR builds that give back to the community.
Finding the workshop
We're located at Plaza Kelana Jaya, easily reached from Kelana Jaya LRT station and surrounding PJ neighbourhoods.
- π Plaza Kelana Jaya, F-8-1 & F-8-2, Jalan SS 7/13A, 47301 Petaling Jaya, Selangor
