Custom design starts with an idea and concept. I often convey the idea with a hand-drawn sketch, as shown here.
My client wanted a headboard and wall treatment to soften and complement the hard edges of the space.
While the concept was being developed I created CAD 3D images to look at different shapes and options of the treatment. These images help clients visualize what the space will look like prior to being built.
We designed and fabricated a custom headboard and drapery panel that would hang from a corona, which is a round element with a way to hang fabric. This corona has a metal rod behind the wood.
The custom drapery is installed and draped over decorative brackets. An upholstered headboard was made high enough to provide ample padding to lean on when sitting upright in bed.
