From a love of woodworking and a deep appreciation of early 20th century craftsmanship, Matt Postrel founded PostrelCo as a way to continue the traditions of high-quality, detailed workmanship of an era gone by. 

Trained in traditional California Craftsman techniques, we use a wide collection of early 20th century machinery, combined with tried and true methods of construction, to produce both historically accurate reproductions and fresh, artistic constructions, ready to stand the test of time. 

Our work can be seen in various notable structures including Frank Lloyd Wright’s Hollyhock House and Disney’s Grand Californian Hotel.

Matt was born and raised in Pasadena and South Pasadena, CA, with deep ties to the area’s woodworking community. He strives to push the boundaries of design, methods of work, and finish quality, while respecting the attention to detail that laid the foundations of quality construction.
