Our Services
Our commitment is to provide a commission-based service that delivers unique, hand-made furniture tailored to each client's specific needs and preferences. From concept to completion, we work closely with our clients to ensure that every piece of furniture meets their exacting standards. Whether it's a bespoke piece for a private client or a product line for mass production, our focus on quality, functionality, and aesthetics ensures a distinctive, original outcome.
Bespoke Furniture Commission
Commissioning a piece of unique furniture or product from Afid Design is a collaborative process that begins with an informal discussion to understand your design requirements and budget. From there, we develop a design brief and establish a project deadline. Our design concepts are presented in the form of sketches and/or 3D photorealistic models, and we work closely with our clients to select materials and finishes that suit their environment. Once the final design is agreed upon, we begin production, keeping our clients updated on the project's progress. Finally, we arrange delivery and conclude the process with payment.

His experience working within the industry, combined with his education in Furniture Design and Design, has equipped him with the skills to deliver high-quality, well-proportioned furniture that meets the needs of each client.
