“An Artisanal Office” on Washington Spaces blog

Remember the article Washington Spaces wrote about us back in January? The writer, Jennifer Sergent, also writes for the Washington Spaces blog and yesterday she posted an entry on one of our most recent custom built-in projects.

Because we show mostly standard furniture in our showrooms, not everyone realizes that we actually do quite a bit of custom furniture as well as built-in bookcases, cabinetry and other work to customer or designer specifications.

This project involved a modification to one of our standard Panel beds, a built-in custom desk and open shelving and a custom file cart masquerading as a rolling bench. The entire office had a custom lacquer finish on it rather than our usual hand-rubbed Danish oil finish.

The end result was a highly functional office/bedroom in the tiniest of spaces, which Hardwood Artisans has been specializing in since we started out as the Loft Bed Store in 1976.
