Who are you?

One workshop, two ways of working.

A complete in-home service: you never have to travel.

  1. We design with you

    Plans are drawn up with you directly, or turnkey with the designer of your choice.

  2. See it before we cut

    2D, 3D or even photorealistic 3D plans, as you need.

  3. The materials you want

    Wood, acrylic, polymer. Counters in wood, quartz, granite or laminate.

  4. Supported to the end

    A follow-up when the work is done, then three months after installation.

The workshop

What you don’t see once the door is closed.

Wood doors, cabinet boxes and furniture are all built in our own workshop, so quality control starts with the very first cut.

Exploded view of a cabinet box
  1. A 5/8-inch back

    The industry standard is ½ inch. Ours is thicker.

  2. Dowelled, glued and screwed

    Every particleboard box is joined all three ways for exceptional strength.

  3. German-made hardware

    Sturdy hinges and drawers, stable and soft-closing.

  4. Doors made here

    Wood doors come out of our workshop, not a catalogue.

Materials, chosen with care

  • FSC-certified wood

    Our wood comes exclusively from FSC-certified suppliers.

  • VOC-free panels

    For composites we favour Québec’s Uniboard and its VOC-free NuGreen range.

  • Low-emission finishes

    Low-VOC or zero-VOC finishing products, as you prefer.

  • Nothing goes to waste

    Cutting is optimised, and shavings go to horse bedding, then compost.
