Sean Springer, founder of Springer Design Studio, joins The Hidden City to talk about his journey from studying sculpture at RISD to building a woodworking and design practice rooted in craftsmanship, healing, and creativity. Sean shares how working with reclaimed wood shaped his artistic path, the philosophy behind his handmade objects, and why materials like wood still feel deeply alive to him.

We also talk about fatherhood, creative community at Tyler Station, learning through physical work, and the ways art, design, and movement can reconnect us to the world around us. Along the way, Sean reflects on collaboration, injury and healing, and the inspiration he draws from Oak Cliff and beyond.
