Beautiful, quality, and made just for you; the luxury of Bespoke furniture cannot be ignored.
August 22nd, 2022
Custom made furniture is built to your specific measurements and desires. Furniture can be custom made in terms of colour, size, shape, material, and design. In comparison to regular furniture, which is identical and mass produced in a predetermined size/shape/colour, custom furniture is much more likely to satisfy your home décor needs.
There are two main reasons people choose to get custom made furniture: function and fit. For those who want their furniture to perform or aid specific tasks, function is incredibly important. This can mean anything from installing cupholders and LED lights to engineering pull-out beds or hidden pools.
Fit refers to the interaction of your furniture with the space. This is particularly relevant if you are designing for an unusual area, such as a corner or curved room. The dimensions of your furniture and the amount of space (bulk) that it occupies in the room are all details which are completely within your control when it comes to custom furniture.
When it comes to custom made furniture Singapore, there is a general assumption that bespoke furniture is expensive. Indeed, the average price for small pieces of customised furniture Singapore is $300-$500 and prices range upwards of $5,000 for a large/complex job. However, bespoke furniture Singapore is more affordable than you might think.
When you consider the long term, custom-made furniture is also an investment. It is built by a designer with your specific circumstances in mind, meaning that it should last many years in high quality condition. It will also make for a family heirloom that can be passed down to your progeny if you so choose.
What should you look for in a good furniture maker?
A good furniture maker will provide personalised and deeply individual services from the get-go. You want to make sure that you have communicated exactly what your piece should look like and the functions that you need it to serve – which can be very tricky if your furniture maker does not make the effort to chat with you live.
Good custom furniture makers should also walk you through the whole process, from design to building or restoration. If you communicate your needs, they will explain how to go about executing them. High quality furniture designers that you can trust will offer you a range of options and outline the pros and cons with each one.
Remember to also trust your furniture maker and let them take the reins. They know what they are doing, and as long as you have communicated what you want from the piece you can sit back and let them bring it into reality.
