Our Story

Rooted in Craft. Inspired by Nature. Built with Intent.

About Golden Diamond Designs

Golden Diamond is a Colorado-based design studio rooted in craftsmanship, material exploration, and meaningful design.

We create sculptural hardwood tables, functional art pieces, kitchen and tabletop goods, and thoughtfully designed planters — all shaped through a deep respect for materials and a desire to craft pieces that feel both purposeful and timeless.

Every piece we make begins with intention — a story, a pattern, a visual connection — and is brought to life by hand in our studio.

The Maker — Trevor Haakenson

Golden Diamond was founded and built by Trevor Haakenson, an artist and maker with a lifelong affinity for craft and a passion for bridging art with everyday living.

Trevor’s journey through woodwork began with a fascination for form and pattern and grew into a disciplined study of material, structure, and design. Through years of making, experimenting, and refining his craft, Trevor has developed a signature approach that blends geometric precision with organic warmth — creating pieces that feel like art, furniture, and conversation starters all in one.

Trevor believes:

  • Wood has a voice — and it deserves to be heard.

  • Design should be intentional, not accidental.

  • Craftsmanship is a living practice — not a trend.

This philosophy drives every decision at Golden Diamond, from pattern selection to joinery, finishes, and final presentation.

  • At Golden Diamond we are inspired by:
    🌲 Nature’s rhythms and forms
    🏔 Colorado’s landscape and light
    🧩 Geometry, balance, and visual harmony

    We work with sustainably selected hardwoods, combining species and tones to create pattern, contrast, and dimensional depth. Each piece is sealed with a durable finish so it wears life while still feeling refined.

    Our work balances:

    • Function + Art

    • Structure + Warmth

    • Handmade Craft + Modern Design

  • Every piece from Golden Diamond is made to be lived with — not just looked at.

    Whether it’s a sculptural table, a kitchen piece you use daily, or a planter that makes your garden feel intentional, our work is crafted to:
    ✔ Add beauty to everyday life
    ✔ Stand the test of time
    ✔ Grow meaning with use

  • Golden Diamond isn’t just about objects — it’s about connection.

    We celebrate:
    🛠 The art of making
    🤝 Thoughtful collaboration
    🌎 Respect for materials and the natural world
    🏡 Design that brings people together

    We’re proud to be part of Colorado’s creative community and to share work that speaks to homes, spaces, and the people in them.
