Custom Furniture
Custom Furniture By Laitamaki creates fully customized furniture pieces tailored to client specifications. Using traditional woodworking techniques, we design sofas, chairs, beds, and headboards that combine ergonomic comfort with artistic detail. Each item undergoes rigorous quality checks to ensure longevity and aesthetic perfection.
Upholstery
Our upholstery service focuses on precision and durability, using premium materials like horsehair and foam for optimal support. Artisans hand-stitch padding and fabric covers to maintain shape over time. We prioritize natural fibers that enhance comfort while preserving the furniture's structural integrity.
Re-upholstery
We specialize in restoring vintage and antique furniture through meticulous re-upholstery. This process retains original frames while updating padding and fabric to modern standards. Our team ensures historical accuracy in materials and techniques while improving functionality for contemporary use.
Hardwood Frames
All furniture starts with kiln-dried hardwood frames made from maple, poplar, and cherry. This foundation resists warping in humid environments, ensuring decades of use. Each frame is hand-joined using mortise-and-tenon techniques for superior strength compared to mass-produced alternatives.
Design Collaboration
We work directly with interior designers and clients throughout the design process. From initial sketches to final delivery, our team provides expert guidance on material selection and dimensional accuracy. This collaborative approach ensures every piece meets both aesthetic and functional requirements.
