One of our current jobs is a space saving bedroom set – starring a built-in Murphy bed and bookcase paired with a dresser and matching mirror. We’ll be making some Maple stain samples to send to the client for comparing with her paint choices. These pieces should be installed in Manhattan this March or April.

Drawing for Murphy Bed Wall Unit with Desk and Entertainment Center
A design for a custom wall unit incorporating a murphy bed, entertainment unit, desk, storage, and display case.
Drawing for Custom Bloomsburg Kitchen
This redesigned Bloomsburg, PA kitchen features natural cherry cabinets with flat Shaker panel doors, and inset doors and drawers.
All of our cabinetry is constructed with solid local lumber and FSC-certified furniture grade plywood and the finest hardware,
including soft-close self-closing undermount slides.
Changes to the original layout include 3″ more of cabinet wall length in either direction and a furniture-style hutch and island that would be painted a satin distressed black. Shaker wood knobs would be a matching black. There will be seven paneled ends including three sides of the island. The reworked design has a drawer to the right side of the range, for cooking utensils or spices.The island legs would be attached to the cabinetry and the apron around the counter would be eliminated (corbels would be included if need be, to support the countertop). The hutch has furniture legs and a decorative apron as well as an upper section primed for display- with two divided light doors, a beadboard back and corbeled sides that extend to the counter. The base of the hutch houses a blind corner larder unit that utilizes the hidden space, in addition to three drawers. To the left of of the hutch is an open bookcase for cookbooks. The garbage and recycling pullout has been relocated to the right of the ovens, close to the sink and dishwasher.
Basement Built-Ins: revised
Bookcase Built-Ins
These cabinets were designed for a large room that has zones that serve as media room and office spaces. The built-in printer cabinet and entertainment center would provide plenty of elegant storage space for favorite books and photographs while giving the room a unified look. It can sport straight lines or be more formal, with fluted columns and arched tops. The same classic style also works well as a desk, as seen in the drawing below. Pullouts, doors, and drawers can be tailored to the use: file folders for a desk, glass doors for components- the options are endless.
Drawing for Formal Master Bathroom
This is the drawing for an exquisite bathroom that was built for a client in Haverford, Pennsylvania. The room featured a paneled arch over the bathtub, with fluted quarter-sawn white oak columns. The vanity wall included a window seat with drawers and a desk area in front of the vanity mirror. It is quite a dramatic bathroom.
Drawing for Bedroom Built-In
Excerpt from the bid:
The wall farthest from the door would become floor to ceiling storage. The bed could go on either of the longer walls. There will be twelve large drawers below (each about 2’ wide and 1’ tall), and seven doors above, concealing adjustable shelves. Drawers and doors would feature a decorative molding. The drawer slides would be full-extension stainless steel ball-bearing slides. The unit would be 22” deep (open to the logs in the back) with a 3” return on the right hand side to allow space for the baseboard heater and the curtain rod above. The base would have decorative feet in front of a recessed toe kick. Between the drawers and door there will be a wide detailed molding, and at the top of the piece there will be a large soffit and a country-style crown molding. The woodwork could be stained to the color of your choice- (the homeowner had mentioned Rosewood), and clear-coated with catalytic lacquer in your choice of sheen. The job would take about a month to complete. Our terms are 10% to hold your spot, 40% to build, and 50% upon installation. There is no sale tax on this piece because it is built-in.
