As in Aldous Huxley’s timeless novel, Island, the Mynah bird reminds us to be present, seize beauty, and pay attention to the reality around us.

It is in this state of mind that Mynah Shopwerks was born… to deliver the very best in custom wood furnishings for our Terra Firma clients in the Bluegrass Region of Central Kentucky.

Check out some of our recent mid-century inspired pieces…Our handcrafted werks enrich our homes, befitting a life well-lived. 💥❤️

Here’s a snapshot of an open-structure, gable-framed screen porch we built on a beautiful horse farm in Stamping Ground, Kentucky.

Collaborating closely with our clients and architect Darren Taylor, we constructed an exterior addition with several unique elements, including exposed ceiling beams, blue stone flooring, and custom brick-work throughout.

With engineering, masonry, and carpentry know-how, we created a truly memorable space for gathering friends and family in a stunning rural setting.

Grateful for another wonderful project in the Bluegrass. ❤️

Here’s a sneak peak of the full renovation we completed on this lovely 1940’s Warfield Gratz home in Lexington’s historic Deepwood Neighborhood.

Working closely with our clients, we used custom carpentry, engineering know-how, and conscientious project management to bring their special vision to reality. New systems, along with coffered ceilings, hand-crafted trim, tailor-made cabinetry and beautiful tile work make this project a stunner. More photos to come…

We love the Bluegrass, and are passionate about building legacy projects and building them right. ❤️

Doing what we do best… Bringing this exquisite 1918 gem back to life. Now taking it to “stud” to install all new systems; insert structural reinforcements for a new rear addition; construct remodel framing; and restore windows throughout.

We are honored to be at the helm of this significant historic renovation project in the heart of Lexington. More progress pics to come…

Our love of the Bluegrass drives our passion to build legacy projects, and build them right. ❤️🎯

The DeCamp house is lovely historic ranch residence nestled in Lexington’s iconic Barrow Road neighborhood. The home is a perfect expression of Central Kentucky mid-century architecture and contemporary elements.

Working closely with owners Kim and Patterson DeCamp, architect Clive Pohl, and Linda Bratton of Architectural Kitchen & Baths, we transformed this kitchen into an open, yet intimate space ideal for hosting family gatherings or entertaining friends.

By incorporating lots of light and garden views, the kitchen invites the outside in…creating an inspired interior worthy of its unique Bluegrass roots.

Thank you DeCamps! It was so special working with you….and fun!

After salvaging 200+ year-old oak from the original structure during renovation, we designed and built a custom kitchen island that sets the stage for good times with family and friends in this extraordinary 1820’s gothic revival home in Jessamine County.

We love what we do.
