COMMERCIAL PROJECTS
Commercial
projects are approached with the same level of expertise and attention
to detail as residential work. Organized scheduling guarantees
consistent results from planning through execution. Samples of custom
materials and finishes can be provided. We utilize highest
quality veneer and lumber materials and are committed to sustainable
forestry and use only no added formaldehyde sheet goods and low voc
finishes.

RESIDENTIAL PROJECTS
We bring our expertise in traditional handmade furniture making into
play for the design and execution of kitchen, bathroom and built in
casework. Our experience with aspects such
as grain matching and solid wood joinery greatly enhance our
cabinetmaking projects. We use solid wood drawers as well as Blum
under mount slides for all casework. We prefer the use of fixed knife
of
butt hinges for door applications, however we are fully set up for euro
construction and the 32mm system.

CUSTOM VENEER WORK
We
are not limited to solid wood construction and often handle
complex
custom veneer work. When
custom veneer is specified
we produce the work in house. We use
raw veneers instead of paperbacked veneers because it affords us much
greater control and
quality of the finished product.

COMPUTER AIDED DESIGN
We
begin all custom projects with a computer generated three
dimensional rendering for client approval. Here problems of
geometry and detailing can be worked out in perspective. Changes of
materials can be made to the computer model to show how subtle changes
effect the overall look of project. Once renders are approved by a
client
a full set of shop drawings are drawn up from the computer model, thus
insuring that what was approved gets built exactly as conceived. An
example of this can be seen from this Park Avenue dental office
reception desk project. The conceptual rendering of a the reception
desk is shown on the left and the finished desk is
shown on
the right.
