Our Residential Furniture Design Process
Your Furniture Needs
Every custom-designed project begins with a conversation focused on your needs.
We ask questions.
We walk through and look at your space.
We capture your vision, then bring it to life through custom design.
01
Define
In this initial phase, we take the time to truly understand our client's vision and goals for the project. We conduct a thorough needs analysis to establish the client's functional requirements, aesthetic preferences, and any unique design challenges that need to be addressed. By collaborating with our clients, we ensure that we are able to meet and exceed their expectations.
02
Discover
This phase is all about research and inspiration. We explore different styles, materials, and design ideas to gain a comprehensive understanding of what the client is looking for. We may also take inspiration from architecture, fashion, and other creative fields to develop a unique and innovative design.
03
Design
In this phase, we take our research and ideas and translate them into a comprehensive design plan. Our design team creates sketches, 3D renderings, and models to help our clients visualize the final product. We also work closely with our clients to ensure that we are capturing their vision and incorporating their feedback into the design.
04
Develop
Once the design is finalized and approved by the client, we move into the development phase. During this phase, we select the materials and finishes, and create detailed technical drawings that our skilled craftsmen can use to build the custom furniture. We also establish a timeline and budget to ensure that the project stays on track.
05
Deliver
This is the final and most exciting phase of the process. We carefully build and handcraft the custom furniture, paying close attention to every detail to ensure that the final product meets our high standards of quality and craftsmanship. Once complete, we deliver the furniture to our clients on time and on budget, ready for them to enjoy in their home or office.
Our Materials for Residential Furniture Design
Woods
The right kind of wood can add depth and texture that complement the design of a room and client’s vision. We use locally-sourced, woods, along with reclaimed lumber and live edge slabs. We offer a variety of species that include domestic hardwoods such as black walnut, and white oak along with many exotic imports. We also offer custom color matches for stains and paints along with clear coat wood finishes.
Veneer & Laminates
Real wood veneer and laminates are wonderful materials that offer a wide range of color and texture to create unique pieces of furniture. These versatile materials can be combined with metals, woods, or solid surface. Materials can be matched to architect specifications.
Metals
From cold roll steel to brass accents, we love to use metal. This versatile material adds a wow factor to any design. Depending on the space, metals can be fabricated to look industrial or powder coated for a clean modern look. Metals are commonly used for furniture bases, architectural wall panels as well as planter boxes.
Textiles
Textiles offer limitless potential in design. Whether bold colors or soft textures are needed, fabrics, vinyl and leathers offer the right solution when creating custom furniture. Once the desired textiles are chosen, we can incorporate them into a myriad of items, from banquettes to, wall panels to room dividers.
Glass/Steel
Glass and steel don’t just have to be simply commodities. We can build tables, doors, shelves, dividers and art of glass. It can be simply clear, acid-etched or back-painted with various edge and locking details. Steel can be used to create custom bases, laser cut dividers and wall art. In order to match the feel of a client’s space, steel can be left to look industrial or powder coated to tie into any color pallet in the room.
Stone & Solid Surface
Stone & Solid Surface – Natural stone, granite, quartz and solid surface are excellent materials for their durability and beauty. No matter what the choice in application these tough surfaces provide long lasting use and design appeal.
