My Dad, Edward, 1 of 1’s founder, is no stranger to innovation and the creation of consumer products.  Having been associated with the creation of hundreds of successful products, Edward, who started his first company while in college, innovated and created consumer products for iconic brands for more than 30 years.

After leaving the corporate world, with countless patents and product innovations to his name, you might wonder, “Why this guy is still going at it?” The truth is, you can't take innovation out of an innovator. 

A native of South Carolina, Edward combined his love of nature and God’s creations with the inherent desire to innovate and started creating custom artwork, wall hangings and furniture. Dad says, "You can't fake natural beauty. The growth rings of the tree, the grain of the wood, bug holes, spalting, the “blemishes and imperfections”, that’s where the beauty lies!”

When asked what One of One Originals was founded on he says, “We find something natural and beautiful and find a way to blend it with the personal aspects of our clients’ lives and bring it to life. The natural beauty-marks in the wood serve as a reminder that that piece of wood is unique and cannot be replicated.  It’s one-of-a-kind and we try to make it a 1 of 1 Original.”

1 of 1 Originals’ mission is to blend nature’s beauty with our client’s inspiration to create one-of-a-kind innovative works of art that bring happiness and breathe life into everyday environments.
