Invest in Yourself… and Your Furniture
Being in business for just about 20 years, we’ve heard many comments about the furniture that people have in their homes before we start designing their spaces. “My furniture doesn’t last more than a few years” or, “I don’t like any sofa options that I see in-store” just to name a few. This is why we specialize in custom furniture and stand by it. We receive many questions about custom furniture selections before and during the design process, but rest assured, our clients never have complaints about the custom pieces we place in their homes. In fact, most clients are happy they invested in custom pieces. Here are a few facts about custom furniture that most people are surprised to hear.
1. Custom Furniture is Very Comfortable.
When you buy a sofa or an armchair from a big-box furniture store, odds are you went to a showroom, sat on that piece, and came to the conclusion in just a few short minutes that it was comfortable. While you can’t test out your custom furniture on-site or before it’s purchased, rest assured it will be comfortable. To solve this concern, our designers attend interior design markets to personally test furniture from custom manufacturers. Selections for custom furniture are based on your height, cushion support preferences, and your use of the piece. Many things are factored in when creating custom pieces. This is to ensure that it’s just right, just for you.
2. Custom Furniture is Beautiful.
When creating custom furniture, the goal is to create each piece to work with other pieces in your home and make the entire space cohesive and special. We carefully select the right pieces and collaborate with you throughout the entire process on the details and finishes of each custom piece. We avoid just trying to match furniture that is often found in retail stores and focus on mixing textures and patterns. This creates a well=designed space that you will love and one that you can be proud of.
3. Custom Furniture is a Valid Investment.
The most argued point about custom furniture is that you can find cheaper furniture elsewhere. You absolutely can. You’ll be limited on colors and materials, all of which tend to not last more than a few years, but you absolutely can find cheaper furniture elsewhere. With custom furniture, you have access to so many finishes, detailing options, and thousands of fabric colors and textures — including options that will withstand your children and grandchildren, pets, and the messes that they tend to create. We are with you through every step of this process, making sure you’re not overwhelmed and insuring you stay inspired and get exactly what you want. Your custom pieces will last much longer than any retail bought piece, and you can feel proud knowing that you were part of the design process of the piece, carefully selecting fabrics and finishes to make it uniquely yours.
