What designers get
- Trade pricing — competitive trade rates on labor and standard fabric programs
- COM (Customer's Own Material) — you specify and ship fabric, we apply it
- Direct designer-to-shop communication — talk directly to the upholsterer, not through a sales filter
- Sample fabric coordination — help sourcing specific patterns, colorways, or specialty materials
- Net-30 billing — established designer accounts after first project
- Project coordination — staged delivery, install sequencing, install-day support
- Confidentiality — client privacy maintained throughout
- Volume pricing on multi-piece projects (estates, hospitality, multi-room refreshes)
What we handle for designers
Whole-house refresh projects
Multiple rooms, coordinated fabric programs, sequenced delivery to match your install schedule. We handle the logistics so you can focus on the design.
One-off custom pieces
From the original sketch through final delivery. Headboards, banquettes, custom chairs, ottomans, benches — built to your specification.
Antique and heirloom work
Period-correct restoration when client value or provenance demands it. Sympathetic restoration when daily use is the priority. We discuss the options with you so you can make the right call for the client.
Hospitality and commercial
Hotel suites, restaurant booths, office reception areas, healthcare facilities. Commercial-grade materials, contract-grade durability, phased rollouts to minimize property disruption.
Our process with designers
- Project briefing — you send specs, fabric, photos, or arrange a walk-through
- Detailed estimate — itemized so you know exactly what's included
- Fabric coordination — we receive COM or order to your specification
- Production — handled in our Reno studio, with quality checks at each stage
- Photo updates — available on request during production for client peace of mind
- Delivery — staged to your install timeline; you can attend or we deliver to the property
