We've made thousands of custom items for our clients over the years and have done a pretty poor job of documenting much of it. This year we are recommitted to getting our processes in order so we can more easily offer our clients even more options to express their creativity in their home or workspace.

We have them in the showroom now so pop by next time you're in the neighborhood and we will give you the information you need to make the style of your choice.

I heart 3D Modeling of furniture


dff

Good CAD software has always been something I have sacrificed when I gave up my PC to become an all Apple household in 1996. It's been a long wait but I don't feel I'm making a sacrifice any more. Google acquired a company called @last software and has continued to improve the sketch-up modeling software. This software removes so many tedious communication barriers with clients and manufacturers that I cant say enough good things about it. And if you want, you can even model your own house and upload it to Google Earth.

Passionate About Pillows





I'm loving the pillows we did for fall. They came out better than I envisioned and look fantastic in the showroom. My only regret is I didn't make more!

Palihouse

Palisades Holloway, a boutique hotel, built by Palisades Development Group, is "not a boutique hotel, and not a luxury residence". Whatever it is, we like. Their lobby features a lounge, a coffee bar and half a dozen nooks to hang with friends. We learned about the project last year when they purchased a number of things from the store. However, it came as a surprise to find it almost entirely comprised of our pieces. Most customers notice right away but for those who haven't visited it is worth a peak.




Our Plaza sofa anchors this sleek vignette. Also from the store a 3 cylinder chandelier, Travertine coffee table, crown coat rack, pedestal side tables and vintage stool.


Host stand at the entrance.


The task lamp and metal hutch are new pieces which can be found on our website.



Empiric's cane back bench in cream leather. Originally they were going to use pony hair bolsters but possibly that idea was scrapped pre production. Vintage framed print above is one that we had in our own home for a bit.




This is other side of the fireplace wall featuring our TH Robsjohn Gibbing reproduction arm chair, vintage floor lamp with suede shade and the mate to the 3 cylinder fixture.
