## The honest read

StudioRossi says on its Houzz profile that it designs and builds custom and bespoke furniture and cabinetry. It holds a 5.0-star Houzz rating from 15 ratings, and a 2018 businessofhome.com article named Massachusetts-based StudioRossi among the exhibitors to check out.

Work in homes shows up in its Houzz reviews. A 2015 reviewer who used Rossi Custom Woodwork for several areas of their home said the window seat was on time and on budget, and that the lighted bookcase and cabinet fit the room like a glove. In a 2019 review, a writer who worked with Fred on a bathroom project in Salem, MA said he built a mid-century bathroom vanity for their clients. Another 2019 review describes the 8 ft tall wooden circle arbor a couple wanted for their wedding day, and says Fred surpassed their expectations.

In a 2015 review, Fred Rossi re-created three tables and an interior door for a historic site in Philadelphia built in 1894, and spent an incredible amount of time perfecting a multi-step staining process so the new woodwork blended in with the turn-of-the-century interior. A separate 2015 review describes custom tables and a door he built for a 19th-century clubhouse, replacing originals that were "well-worn"; that club was already working with Fred to replace other wood elements.

A 2017 review says the Friends of the Ipswich Library commissioned a table by Fred Rossi from the wood of an American elm that had stood in Ipswich, MA for nearly 175 years, and that in spring 2016 he turned the remaining wood into display gondolas. A 2015 review of a library table made from a much-loved elm tree says Fred was easy to work with, kept all deadlines and came in on budget. Another 2015 reviewer wrote that he created a workable solution in a limited space, was organized, communicated throughout the process and documented all agreements.

**Strengths:**
- Custom furniture — tables and a vanity praised in 2015–2019 reviews
- Historic reproductions — tables and a door for an 1894 site, in 2015
- Deadlines and budget — library table and window seat on time in 2015
