Behind the Design: Custom Furniture

BEHIND THE DESIGN: CUSTOM FURNITURE  We are excited to share photos of two of our latest San Francisco projects! While each home differed in size and style, both projects challenged us to flex our problem-solving muscles to create customized furniture solutions for our clients. Every available inch is maximized and individual client requests considered when we design bespoke furniture. Take a peek inside our design process for developing custom furniture! Custom bed + floating shelves in our Mission Bay Pied-à-terre  High on our client's priority list for their pied-à-terre in the city was a king-sized bed in their petite master bedroom. We embraced this challenge by opting for a wall-mounted headboard and small, cantilevered nightstands to maximize every inch.  Dramatic wall sconces were installed to provide bedside lighting without taking up any additional square footage.  NOE VALLEY RESIDENCE SCALE + PROPORTION Standard dining tables come in limited sizes and with minimal options for leg placement, which can make tucking chairs almost impossible. Larger tables from retail outlets tend to have bulkier proportions and can overwhelm a space.  We designed this FSC-certified walnut dining table with our local woodworker to provide enough seating for large family dinners. The angled leg detail maintains a lightweight feel that blends with the home's mid-century style.    MAKING AWKWARD SPACES FEEL INTENTIONAL Custom furniture is a fantastic way of turning a design limitation into a design feature! The master bedroom in our Noe Valley project had a tight niche where the bed needed to be placed. Instead of squeezing in a freestanding bed and nightstands, we designed an integrated bed with floating walnut nightstands – a seamless solution that becomes the focal point of the room.  A custom, eco-friendly sectional maximizes seating for family movie nights. Designing furniture to the inch allows us to perfectly scale a piece to the size of the room.  CLIENT TESTIMONIAL "They are an efficient, well-organized, motivated group of talented designers who really take the time to get to know their clients. We were pleasantly surprised with how easy the process was. From the very beginning, they understood our style and vision, and the selection process was simple and straightforward. We were kept in the loop every step of the way and the end product is beautiful." – Trisha & Jeff     Mission Bay Pied-à-terre CALIFORNIA HOME + DESIGN FEATURES OUR MISSION BAY PROJECT!  "A Pied-à-terre for Basketball Fans" showcases the condo we designed for an energetic young family of Warriors fanatics who are lucky enough to walk across the street to games in the new stadium!   ––>   FOLLOW NICHE ON INSTAGRAM   <–– FOR UP-TO-THE-MINUTE UPDATES AND INSPIRATION!
