Our Studio

Over the years we have collected many of our favorite finishes that are beautiful, well-performing, and value based. We use these curated finishes to develop options that work with most styles and budgets.  The benefit of having in-house, tangible finishes is that decisions can be made quickly. Materials can be seen side by side, removing guess work, unnecessary surprises, and hassle of driving all over town to locate samples. Not only does doing this add efficiency to the design process, we feel it is the best way to create a truly cohesive finished look and enjoy the process.  The Finish Studio was purpose built to get things done. 

Design:

 “The Worktable” is a client favorite because it is where we  present the finish recommendations / options for your project.  Finishes are placed on a custom built display wall so that we can see how things look together and keep with our identified style.  Favorites are kept on the wall while new options can be quickly “swapped out” as we create the desired look and feel.  The resources at our fingertips are what makes this so much fun and efficient - saving countless hours and potential project delays.  You still get to design your home but we made it significantly easier by presenting options we feel best work for your project. We are here to guide the design process using our experienced design eye knowledge of quality.  

Procurement: 

Clients are not obligated to purchase the recommendations made in the Design/Finishes. However,  most choose to- the reasons are our competitive price and management of the often complex process to have the correct materials on site when needed. To do right, a system must be followed and strong vendor relationships are critical for success.  This is where we truly shine. 

The Finish Studio is staffed to receive, store and deliver finishes purchased.  Home owners who attempt to tackle this process often find themselves in a sea of paperwork, confusion  and unreliable delivery schedules.  In many cases there is nowhere to put finishes that is secure and this can become very costly.  Project delays are expensive and stressful - fees associated with the above process are well worth the expense.
