Who we are

At Cedar Falls Design Co., we create outdoor spaces where lumber, water, and nature work together. Based in the Catskills, we specialize in custom outdoor showers, saunas, decks, pergolas, fencing and anything that will transform your backyard into the retreat it was meant to be. With a background in high-end residential construction engineering, our founder brings precision, technical expertise, and a deep appreciation for structure and materials to every project.

We love to see you enjoy the spaces we create together, and we think everyone deserves to spend more time enjoying the outdoors.

Founder Max Vazquez studied Mechanical Engineering at Fairfield University. His interest in construction started at a very young age, and he is currently a high end / luxury residential MEP Engineer based in NYC and working in all high end and commercial U.S. markets. He works as a buffer between Architects and Contractors, and uses that unique experience to connect design style with constructability for his projects.
