Here’s An Opinion On:
Submitted by: Michael Hughes
Not everyone lives in a house with straight walls and gaps that fit standard items of furniture, even in modern houses adequate storage can be a problem as space may be limited and whats on offer at your local furniture shop may just not be a practical solution. Custom made furniture can solve these problems as well as looking great. Here are three things that a specially made piece of furniture can do for you:
1. Designed by you. Bespoke furniture is great if you need something a bit different, a place to store art, wine, clothes, books whatever you need; going down this route is fun and a great solution. You wont need to compromise on what it is that you really need or go for something that just fits in but doesnt really do what you need it to. You can also have fun choosing different designs, colours or matching your new item of furniture with what you already have to create a flawless look within your home.
2. Limited on space. Custom made furniture can be made to any size, many homes especially in Cornwall where a lot of the houses are old miners cottages have nooks and crannies that just wont take standard furniture or if they do – the furniture can look really out of place. By purchasing a custom made item of furniture you can make sure that whatever look you are going for in your home isnt ruined by having to make do with something from a high street retailer. You can mix practicality with fun by designing your item of furniture from start (drawing up plans) to finish (choosing fixings and finishings as well as colour).
3. Not as expensive as you may think. Simply by doing some research on your local furniture manufacturers via the internet or local business directory can save a lot of time and money. By using the internet as a tool you save time driving from one place to another trying to find the right craftsmen to complete the job. You may be very surprised that bespoke furniture is a lot cheaper then you may have thought – it may not actually be any more than standard items depending on your needs. Its also important to think of the material that you wish your item of furniture to be made from – oak and mahogany are expensive but a similar effect can be made by choosing something such as pine and then having it stained in a oak finish etc.
As you can see, custom made furniture can do a lot for your home and needn’t be expensive. This type of furniture offers storage solutions as well as being aesthetically pleasing. What more could you ask for? Take a closer look at all the companies offering a bespoke furniture service and you will eventually find the one that is right for you. It is advisable to have a clear idea of what you what, accurate measurements and the right company and it will be one of the best furniture buys that you make. You dont even need to be good at drawing as a furniture manufacturing specialist will be able to ascertain what you need over the phone. Sadly due to the recession and imports from China, a lot of these smaller manufacturers have gone out of business. But they are still there and well worth searching around for.
