The Difference Between Bespoke and Custom Hospitality Furniture

What are the Differences Between Bespoke & Custom Furniture for Hospitality?

Here at Lugo, we offer both custom and bespoke furniture design, but exactly what is bespoke furniture, and what are the differences between this and the custom furniture option? Both services are similar in that they are designed and manufactured according to your specification, but there are some key differences to note between bespoke and custom furniture.

Many people use the terms ‘custom’ and ‘bespoke’ interchangeably, however, the two can be differentiated in a number of ways. While bespoke furniture is designed and manufactured as a completely unique, standalone piece, custom furniture takes a pre-existing design, and alters specific elements based on your style preferences.

What is Custom Furniture?

Custom furniture means that you can tailor any existing design to your requirements. The beauty of custom tailor-made furniture is that you are able to create the perfect piece of furniture to suit your interior, based on an existing design, taking the hard work out of creating ideal furniture for your hospitality environment.

The custom furniture process is as simple as choosing a furniture design you like, and making it your own by changing the wood stain of the timber, mixing upholsteries to two-tone fabrics, or introducing alternative fabrics and finishes. You could consider contrasting piping, adding deep buttoning, studs or show wood, to create an individual piece that suits your hospitality needs and style.

 

The Benefits of Custom Furniture Design

 

No Design Costs

Custom furniture design made easy - draw upon our expertise in customising our existing furniture designs to suit your décor specification without any extra cost.

Uncomplicated

By simply changing the fabric or finishes of our furniture you can customise to align with existing hospitality furniture or a new interior design scheme you have in mind.

Cost Effective

Opting for creating custom furniture ensures you can easily achieve a bespoke look without going over budget.

Quick Turnaround

As custom furniture is based on a pre-existing design, and only requires altering detailing such as buttoning or piping, our turnaround times are kept to a minimum for your convenience.
