Your Questions, Answered

  • Matt Wood Studio designs and builds custom furniture and architectural woodwork for residential and commercial interiors. Typical projects include dining tables, beds, credenzas, desks, shelving, cabinetry, and built-in installations.

    Each piece is designed specifically for its space and constructed from solid hardwoods using traditional joinery and modern fabrication techniques. Projects range from standalone furniture pieces to larger built-in installations that integrate with the architecture of a room.

  • Most projects begin with a conversation about the space, goals, and design direction.

    Clients often share inspiration images, sketches, or drawings from an architect or interior designer. From there we discuss dimensions, materials, and timeline to determine whether the project is a good fit.

    If you’re ready to begin, you can reach out through the contact page with a short description of the project, approximate dimensions, and any reference images.

  • Matt Wood Studio focuses on pieces that feel both architectural and enduring. Rather than producing standard furniture designs, each project is developed specifically for the space it will inhabit.

    Attention is given not only to the overall form, but also to material selection, joinery, and the way a piece interacts with the surrounding architecture. The goal is to create furniture that feels integrated into its environment rather than simply placed within it.

    Whenever possible, pieces are built with longevity in mind. By using solid hardwoods and durable construction methods, the intention is to create heirloom-quality furniture—pieces designed to last for generations and to improve with age and use.

  • Custom furniture is designed and built specifically for each project, so pricing varies depending on size, materials, and complexity.

    As a general guideline, most furniture projects range between $4,000 and $15,000, while larger built-in or cabinetry installations may range from $8,000 to $40,000+.

    Sharing a rough budget during the initial inquiry helps ensure the project scope and design direction align with expectations.

  • The studio focuses primarily on custom furniture pieces and larger built-in installations.

    While smaller commissions may occasionally be possible, most projects involve substantial furniture pieces or architectural woodwork designed for a specific space.

  • Because each piece is made to order, projects are scheduled based on the current build queue and the complexity of the design.

    Most projects are completed within 8–16 weeks from design approval, though larger installations may require additional time.

    If a project has a specific deadline, it’s helpful to mention that during the initial conversation so we can determine whether the timeline is achievable.
