What custom-made furniture means

Making custom furniture does not mean, as you may mistakenly think, creating a piece of furniture from scratch according to the features you prefer.

Making custom furniture for us artisans means making something that meets the needs of the client and the space in which they want to place it.

Customization of this type of furniture can therefore have a significance:

  • Functional, meeting the customer's habits 

Choosing custom-made furniture means entrusting the craftsman to create an exclusive piece of furniture that will make the space in which it is placed even more unique.

Always remember that custom furniture can involve the entire interior design project, but it can also be limited to a room that has specific functional and space requirements.

Small rooms: choosing custom-made furniture

So you must have understood that custom-made furniture means making furniture complements that can have particular sizes or shapes that can fit the spaces in the house.

In Venice, too, there is, increasingly, this trend of shrinking apartments that therefore need more attention when it comes to choosing custom-made furniture.

Precisely for this reason, space-saving custom-made furniture has increasingly taken pride of place in the choice, combining aesthetics and functionality.

Some of the space-saving custom-made furniture that can be made include:

  • Storage bed: when the bedroom is not so large that we can have many shelves or cabinets where we can store our things, the bed with a storage unit placed on the bottom might be ideal.
  • Bridging cabinets: perfect for when the bedroom is not large enough to fit a large-sized closet. 
  • Storage benches: another way to get extra space is to have these special benches made that not only provide comfortable seating, but allow us to store many items inside.
  • Furniture for the crawl space or attic: these are two places that can have distinctive shapes. A custom piece of furniture will turn out to be perfect for inclusion in these areas.
