From drawing to delivery: how a custom furniture project runs

What happens between your first sketch and installation day — and how to keep a custom project on schedule.

By Editorial team

Hands drafting plans with a ruler and rolled drawings

Custom furniture follows a clear sequence. Understanding it helps you plan approvals and keep your opening date safe.

1. Brief and design

Share drawings, reference images, quantities and your target dates. We review the brief and suggest designs, materials and construction methods that meet your budget and use case.

2. Technical drawings

Each piece is drawn with dimensions, materials and construction details for your approval. This is the point to confirm heights, clearances and finishes.

3. Materials and samples

Fabric, timber and finish samples are prepared so colours and textures can be approved against your interior scheme.

4. Prototype

For larger projects, a prototype confirms comfort, proportions and finish before production begins.

5. Production and quality control

Approved designs move into production, with inspections at key stages and a final check before packing.

6. Packing and logistics

Pieces are packed for transport and delivered to site on the agreed terms, ready for installation.
