EIDOLON: A VISION WORTHY OF MANIFESTATION ¬¬¬ Eidolon Designs is a team of craftsmen and designers lead by husband-and-wife Mike Parker and Ann Cowperthwaite. We specialize in custom designed high-quality furniture, special architectural projects, and millwork for clients who value the personal over the manufactured. Handmade in our downtown Raleigh studio since 1985. Mike uses his creative engineering and fabrication expertise to assure structural integrity, Ann her thoughtful visual articulation to assure beautiful presentation, and our craftsman their skill to create products designed to last a lifetime. This is our way: just a few artisans with a passion for our craft. Creating by hand takes a measurable part of our lives and we like it this way. The integrity of our process will always take precedence over expediency.
