Designer-Friendly
Build to your designer's spec, or develop the design with us.
We work with interior designers, architects, and homeowners directly. We can build to a designer's specifications and drawings, or develop the design ourselves through our in-house design consultation.
Most projects are designed and built to fit a specific space rather than using off-the-shelf modular components. That means cleaner lines, tighter scribes, and a built-in that looks original to the room.
From Tyler
Built-ins fit the room, not the other way around. That means scribing to the wall, returning panels into hidden corners, and getting the proportions right for the ceiling height you actually have. I build to your designer’s drawings or develop the design myself. Either way it is me on site, and we finish your project before starting the next.
