We are Thanos & Vanessa Tzanopoulos, based in Crown Point, IN We built Meraki Customade in 2018 with a single vision— to bring Color and Soul to the art of woodworking. ​The philosophy of Meraki lives not just in our business, but in the way we live. We appreciate the little things that make life enjoyable and meaningful — Like seeing the colors of the sky in that quiet moment just before sunrise, a fresh morning breeze on your skin, the smell of daisies drifting through a spring afternoon. The sound of laughter from a silly kid. The first bite of a meal made with love. We build Meraki Customade because we care. Our goal is not to sell you a product. But to create something Just for you, a Soulful piece that carries your favorite memory or feeling. A gift you want to make to a Loved-One that is as strong in emotions, as the relationship you share. We blend time-honored craftsmanship with modern materials and artistic integration to create one-of-a-kind pieces that are built to last, designed to captivate, and meant to transform any space they live in. Our wood selection is as unique as the pieces we build from it. We source exotic hardwoods from Africa, South America & Europe, alongside premium domestics from our beloved Midwest. If you're looking for something with soul — a piece crafted with intention, rich in detail, and impossible to ignore — you're in the right place. Browse our collection and see if something speaks to you.

Meraki Customade

Some relationships are built like clay and water — one steady, one flowing. One grounding, one shaping. Together, they create something lasting. Clay & Water carries that quiet balance. The flowing curves move across the surface like currents meeting earth, creating harmony in contrast. It’s a design that feels but natural. Effortless. Intentional. This is more than a cutting board. It is a daily reminder that love isn’t about sameness — it’s about complementing one another. About strength meeting grace. Given as a gift, it becomes a symbol of people who grow together, shape one another, and build something enduring from the very foundation up. This piece is the one and only — never to be recreated, never duplicated. Once it finds its home, it will remain singular. A one-of-a-kind creation for a one-of-a-kind home.Care Instructions We know our cutting boards are beautiful — but they are made to be used daily. The advice we give all of our customers is simple: wash with soap and water on both sides, wipe it dry, and let it air dry upright against a wall or on a stand so both sides breathe evenly.
