Adam Bezzina

Adam's passion for wood working started when he was young, growing up helping his grandfather, Charlie, in his wood shop. Since then, Adam has had a successful 9 year career as an engineer while being a hobby woodworker. But working with his hands to build original custom furniture remained his true passion. Today, Adam combines technical design skills with a love of craftsmanship to create high-end custom furniture for residential and commercial spaces.

The Craftsman and the Team

After buying his first house, Adam could not find the right original furniture that met his needs. That is where his passion for fine wood working and building innovative custom furniture began. Adam started building furniture for his own house. He quickly fell in love with the fine woodworking and precision required to build functional works of art. That is when Pompous Fox was created with a mission to build sustainable custom furniture that would stand the test of time while capturing personal stories and functional needs.

Pompous Fox began in a one-car garage and has grown into a furniture workshop in Barrie where Adam develops his skills as a woodworker and continually pushes the craft forward. Now in a 2,000 square foot shop, Adam has expanded the business with better equipment to accommodate larger scale projects focusing on modern and contemporary pieces that elevate any space. He loves being challenged with unique furniture pieces and developing his own designs.

In his free time, Adam enjoys back country camping, hiking and exploring the mountains which has inspired a great appreciation for nature. This respect for the natural world is why sustainability is an important aspect of the business model. By creating high quality, solid wood furniture that will be passed down through generations, he contributes to a less wasteful and more sustainable future.

Today, Adam and his team focuses on creating highly customized pieces that highlight the natural beauty of wood while embodying true craftsmanship. He sources premium hardwoods through the Ontario Lumber Industry, ensuring a commitment to sustainability and local materials. Whether it’s the Extendable Dining Table or the Walnut Woven King Bed Frame, every piece is a testament to bespoke woodworking and building original custom furniture that becomes a part of a client’s story.

Adam’s mission is to craft custom modern furniture in Barrie with uncompromising quality and authenticity - designed to endure and elevate spaces across Toronto, Muskoka, Ontario, and beyond.

Pompous Fox Values

Sustainability

At Pompous Fox Wood Co, sustainability is built into every step of the process. We strive for zero waste by repurposing hardwood off-cuts into smaller products or firewood, and exclusively use VOC-free, plant-based hand-rubbed finishes. Our hardwoods are locally sourced through the Ontario Lumber Industry, with exotic woods carefully selected from sustainable suppliers. We also benefit from Ontario’s 92% zero-carbon electricity grid, ensuring that both our materials and operations minimize environmental impact.

Every project is a dialogue - one where ideas, expertise, and creativity flow freely. By maintaining open communication and a flexible approach, we ensure that each piece we create not only meets expectations but embodies the shared aspirations of everyone involved.
