Our Process

The process of developing exceptional work always commences with a spark of inspiration. We carry out pooled conceptualization, sketching, rendering, and deliberation until we reach a unanimous accord. With finesse and persistence, we bring our artistic conceptions to fruition from their modest conception.

STEP 1 - INTRODUCTION
INITIAL DESIGN DISCUSSION

In the initial design discussion of building a custom timber piece of furniture, it is crucial to consider both form and function. The design should reflect the customer’s preferences while also ensuring the piece fits into the intended space. It’s fundamental to evaluate different types of timber, finishes, and hardware that will be used in the project. The designer should consider the manufacturing process and potential challenges that may arise. The design should be practical and purposeful, ensuring the longevity of the piece. Collaboration between the designer and customer is essential in creating a unique and personal piece. Brainstorming and sketching ideas at the initial stage can save time and resources in the long run, producing a remarkable piece that can be cherished for years to come.

STEP 2 - DESIGN
MEASURE UP & DRAWINGS

After the initial design discussion, the second step is to measure up the dimensions and create some initial drawings of the custom-made piece of timber furniture. This is crucial to ensure that the piece will fit perfectly in its intended space and meet the client’s requirements. The measurements must be accurate, and the drawings must reflect the agreed-upon design. Once the drawings are approved, the process of crafting the furniture can begin. Using high-quality materials and master craftsmanship, the furniture will come to life and be as unique as the individual who commissioned it. This step sets the foundation for a beautifully crafted piece that will last for generations.

STEP3 - BUILD
Construction of the piece

After the initial discussion and planning phase, we move on to creating a custom timber furniture design, drawing up the plans to more specific details. This step allows us to put together all necessary content and ensure that everything falls in place accordingly. By confirming measurements with the client, we ensure that their expectations are met and that our team can complete the construction process efficiently. Our experienced craftsmen use high-quality material to build a unique piece of furniture that will withstand daily wear and tear. Our bespoke designs are a true reflection of our client’s vision, quality craftsmanship, and functional aesthetics.

STEP 4 - INSTALL
SEE IT IN YOUR HOME

We understand the importance of delivering and installing the custom timber furniture pieces to our clients. In the final stage, we go through the process of organizing the delivery and installation so that our clients can be very happy with the results. We ensure that the furniture is delivered and installed in a timely and efficient manner. Our team of professionals work hard to make sure that the process goes smoothly for our clients. We take pride in delivering beautiful custom timber furniture pieces that our clients will love for many years to come.

  • Chris was helpful and knowledgeable from the start. Even coming out to rectify a small issue after installation. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend.

  • I found Chris and Kithe by googling, and took the risk of ordering based on the photos and reviews. I'm glad I did! The table he made for me is a really substantial quality product, which looks exactly as I had hoped. Chris was easy and pleasant to deal with, and the whole project went without a hitch. I highly recommend him.

    Clare Iacono
  • Could not recommend Chris and the 2nd Chance team more highly! We have used them for two of our recent projects and are beyond thrilled with what they made for us. Our custom built dining table and study bench/desk are stunningly beautiful, and exceptionally well made. The quality of the workmanship is excellent, and everyone who comes to our home comments on how wonderful both of these pieces are! We look forward to having them make more things for us again in the future. Chris was easy to work with, and ensured our visions came to life. We are very, very happy customers! 🙂

    Inkah Art
  • The only reason I would not recommend Kithe is because they are so good to deal with, and their furniture is so beautiful, it's too good a secret to share.

    Julie Kalman
  • Kithe were fantastic to deal with, start to finish. Responsive, helpful and, most importantly, delivered an absolutely outstanding product. We had a Lucy console made in solid blackwood (the first one in blackwood apparently!) and it is just gorgeous. We are beyond happy with the result. Big thank you to Chris and his team. Would recommend them to anyone looking for a beautiful, high quality cabinet.
