Zoreda Taller de Madera

Zoreda Taller de Madera is a carpentry workshop in Mérida, Yucatán, dedicated to the design, fabrication and installation of bespoke furniture and woodwork. For more than nine years we have developed projects for private clients, architects, interior designers, construction firms and developers. We do not work from a catalogue: every piece begins with a space, a use, measurements and a specific need.

Over the years we learned that many of a project's problems are solved before fabrication. That is why we review measurements, levels, site conditions, access routes, installations, materials, hardware, finishes and how the piece will be used. If we detect that a solution could work better, we discuss it with the client and propose alternatives rather than automatically executing what appears in a reference. The final decision belongs to the client; our job is to contribute criteria so the project reaches the workshop better resolved.

We work mainly with solid wood and with plywood or edge-glued panel solutions made from the species we handle, including tzalam, oak, parota, poplar, walnut, rosewood, cedar and cumarú. We do not use MDF, melamine, laminate or WPC. The choice of wood depends on use, location, exposure, expected maintenance, budget and the desired result. Finishes are also defined for each project: we prepare physical samples on the same wood species and adjust tone, sheen, texture and appearance before approving them for fabrication.

For us, quality is not just an adjective. It is verified in grain continuity, clean joints, well-finished edges, structural strength, levelling, squareness, the opening and closing of doors and drawers, fixings and the operation of the hardware. During fabrication the design team follows the project, and before moving the pieces we carry out a general review to catch details that are better resolved in the workshop than on site.

We work actively in Yucatán, Quintana Roo and Campeche, from individual pieces to full carpentry for residences, real estate developments, apartment towers, commercial projects, hotels and hospitality spaces. Our team also handles on-site assembly and adjustments. And once installation is complete, we maintain after-sales service on the carpentry we build to review adjustments, operation and any later needs.

Zoreda does not simply seek to deliver a piece of furniture. We want every project to be well thought out before it enters the workshop, well executed during fabrication and correctly installed so it works the way the client needs and keeps making sense over time.
