Custom Furniture & Upholstery

The hallmarks of quality furniture have been a tradition for centuries.

Commonly misunderstood and neglected in today's marketplace, it is often surprising to learn that in a world of fast-paced technological advances, great upholstered furniture making has changed little by comparison over the years. The knowledge about quality is often alusive because so much of the craftsmanship is on the inside, but careful examination between a really well-made piece and the everyday marketplace option is clearly distinguishable.

Before You Buy Your Next Piece of Furniture, Consider...

  • your furniture is an investment in your personal comfort and lifestyle
  • wisely chosen, your furniture will outlive your car, your high tech entertainment items and most of your household appliances.
  • great furntiure is even renewable.
  • great furniture must support the user, both in size and function.
  • furniture must be right for the space it occupies.
  • great upholstered furniture delivers performance over time.

Experience the difference...... Not only will you see it... You Will Feel It.

Here's a selection of custom created, designed and built furniture, and antique make-overs.

Upholstered Furniture Making is an Art

  • From the construction of the frame to the final touches of fitting and sewing, great furniture requires a specific set of skills and master's touch.
  • Great masters are few and far between.

You Will Love our Custom Furniture Because....

  • we are proud to be among those who honour the tradition of fine furniture making
  • we make each piece to "custom fit" the user.  A 6'3" 250 lb.man certainly will not get comfort from the same piece of furniture that suits someone 5' tall
  • our upholstery shop is integrated with our sewing workroom and together, the masters of the two skill sets, work with our interior design team to create wonderful solutions individually tailored to your specific needs.
  • we can make anything your heart desires:  Sofas; love seats; sectionals; chairs;  window seats;  ottoman; valance boxes, etc.
  • we design and make it all in any size, shape, and style that you might need.......and we make sure your are comfortable in it.
  • we offer you a global selection of fabrics; leathers and trims in unlimited combinations.
  • we make sure you get the right fabric for the right product, so that you are ensured performance over time.

Reupholstery..... the same rules apply.

The keys to deciding whether to reupholster or not are.....

  • to determine if you like the basic size and shape and to assess if the frame is salvageable.
  • to know that old pieces can certainly be updated and restyled, and determine if this is suitable.
  • understand that a reupholstered piece is a "new"  custom piece of quality furntiure.

Testimonials

"In no time flat, Irene knew who I was, what my lifestyle was, what my background was, what I liked and didn't like and I think that's the key to the whole thing.  I love it, just love it."

Sheila Clarke

"Details that were already in the house were part of the plan...there was a particular kind of furniture we had and they picked up some of the line in the detail and colour right away. It was amazing to me what they were able to do with the fabrics. I never would have thought of that, but it looks great!"

Rev. Art Storey

"The interesting thing about Irene was that she took me outside of the 'box'...it was an awesome experience...courteous and fun. Irene offers more than just decorating like furniture refinishing and draperies so for me it was one stop shopping."

Cathy Barker

"Initially, we were he hesitant to contact an Interior Designer because we wanted our home to reflect our tastes and not someone else's. Contacting Turnbull Interiors was the best thing we could have done. Irene took detailed notes of our colour preferences and of environments that made us feel comfortable. She spent many hours developing designs and colour schemes that worked for us. We feel happy and relaxed in our new surroundings and thank Bill and Irene for turning our house into our home.

Linda and Bill Huttons

"Irene has a knack of drawing out our feelings and likes and with her amazing team put together a room that gives us the warm cozy feeling we were looking for. Through conversations with both of us, Irene was able to determine what colour and style we preferred to feel calm and relaxed in our new space.
