ABOUT OXBOW:
Oxbow Design Build was founded in 2015 by Carl Woodruff, Chris Millette, and Noah Modie. With the help of The Valley Alliance of Worker Cooperatives we officially converted into a worker-owned co-op in August of 2019.
As a full service design-build company, we offer a single point of direct communication from start to finish. One member of our team will be your project manager from start to finish with the design and construction teams working closely. When you have a question, your project manager will find the answer. Your project manager will guide and manage the many moving parts for you. Every member of our team knows how important your project is and will work to make it a success.
Our goal at Oxbow Design Build is to help our clients navigate their building project from concept to completion. We enjoy being involved in all phases of consultation, design and fabrication.
COOPERATIVE VALUES:
A worker-owned cooperative is a business model where the employees are also the owners, sharing in the profits and decision-making. By working with a worker-owned coop, you support fair labor practices, local economies, and a commitment to sustainability, all while benefiting from dedicated, motivated workers who take pride in their contributions.
TESTIMONIALS
It was a pleasure to have Oxbow design our addition. They worked with us every step of the way and their expertise guided the entire project. The end result is something we will cherish forever. Thank you Noah and team!

This project finished right before winter 2020. Kitchen renno and integrate/winterize 3 season porch off of kitchen. Found Carl very communicative, honest, responsive, commitment to sustainability, and “went to the mat” with 3rd party suppliers to get things right. Excellent craftsmanship, excellent sub contractors (ex. electric, HVAC, etc) . Cannot tell the difference between custom made items (cabinets, shelving) and those ordered from 3rd party. Had an in-house designer to help us with our vision and our quirky circa 1900 house.

We used Oxbow for both architectural design and fabrication on a large commercial project. In a world of fluctuating timelines and estimates, Oxbow followed through on both and we were incredibly happy with the final product.

My husband and I hired Noah at Oxbow Designs to design a new home to replace a small cottage by a pond… …Noah was patient, thorough and professional every step of the way. We are very happy in our new home! People in our community are still remarking on how it sits so perfectly on the pond and blends in with the beautiful surroundings.

Worked with them from start to finish – before I bought the house I brought them in for a consultation, and they oversaw all architecture, demolition, construction, and more (like the table). A pleasure to work with them, very reasonable cost, and a high degree of professionalism. Easy to work with. They took my vision and brought their own ideas as well – a positive collaboration.

We have had Oxbow work on many projects for us over the years. They are excellent in so many ways, attention to detail, creativity, and communication, to name a few. They are always professional, and lovely to be around! We highly recommend.
