The species and finishes we build in, what each one suits, and an honest view of what drives cost.

Pale, clean and the most budget friendly hardwood options.
Warm reddish tones with a fine, even texture.
Deep, near black tones over oak, ash or poplar.
Poplar, MDF and veneered panel finished in any color.
Colors shown are representative illustrations, not accurate samples. We bring physical samples to every consultation, and you are welcome to visit the shop to see finished pieces in person.
Solid Or Veneer
There is a widespread assumption that solid wood is always better. For interior surfaces that is frequently untrue, and insisting on solid where veneer performs better costs money and causes problems.
Cost
Walnut can cost three times what ash does for the same square footage. It is the single largest variable in any quote and entirely your choice.
On a large wall, choosing quality veneer over solid can cut the material cost by half while performing better.
Curves, mitred returns, integrated lighting, inlay and grain matched sequencing all add shop hours, which is where labor cost lives.
