Custom Furniture Tear Sheet – We create these custom furniture tear sheets for Interior Designer’s to use in their client's presentations. Using this format allows us to include the photo real rendering, product dimen-sion, materials and their company information on the sheet. This helps the designer’s client to see design concept as a finished product. Shop Drawings – our staff has over 25 years experience working with cabinet makers, we are familiar with all of the necessary information that they need to build the piece. Since our shop drawings are used by profes-sionals we include industry standard hardware that professional cabinet makers know. Our selection for hardware has three criterias.

1. The hardware design is appropriate to the design. 2. It is the best quality available. 3. It will enhance the customers experience.

The aim of our shop drawing is to capture the furniture design intent. To provide shop drawings that when followed will produce a finished piece that will look like our furniture design rendering.
