What Our Customers Are Saying…
-
“[Relic Modern, formerly Hossle Woodworks] defies logic. Justin has somehow figured out the secret location where aesthetic beauty, stunning functionality, and skillfully-honed craft all meet…”
-Tod F.
-
“…Justin perfectly executed the vision in his distinct style. We now have a bespoke bathroom [vanity] rather than the cookie-cutter ones available at box stores, and for a very reasonable price.”
-Logan S.
-
“We have now commissioned two pieces from [Relic Modern] and we have been wildly impressed with both.”
-Anne L.
The Art of Handcrafted Furniture
Every piece is a personal creation, thoughtfully designed and crafted entirely by hand. Justin Hossle, the creative mind behind Relic Modern™, brings a keen eye for detail and a love for mid-century aesthetics, reimagined through a modern lens. Always exploring new ideas, he approaches every element with curiosity and care.
Custom Work, Made Just for You
From variations of our existing collections to entirely tailored creations, our custom pieces carry the same commitment to artistry and longevity.
The Beauty of Baltic Birch
Unique, layered, and remarkably durable, Baltic birch is a hallmark of Relic Modern™. Many of the handcrafted products highlight the distinct stacked composition of the individual pieces of birch—combining beauty and strength. The result is heirloom-quality work that’s sustainable, enduring, and truly one-of-a-kind.
Our Design Philosophy
Nothing brings character to your space like furniture & objects made by a real person. Relic Modern™ practices functional minimalism to pare each piece down to its simplest and cleanest possible expression, working with the geometry and texture of our high-quality woods—not against them. Because of this, each item is distinct, sustainable, and enduring.
