Walnut
Rich brown color, expressive grain and a refined presence for conference tables, communal tables, bar tops and millwork.
Material Intelligence
Commercial Furniture Materials & Finishes
Hardwoods, live-edge slabs, stone, metals and finish systems specified for custom tables, bar tops and architectural furniture.
Designed for the Application
Material Selection Is Part of the Engineering
Species, slab width, grain, movement, substrate, joinery, stone support, metal structure, finish chemistry and maintenance expectations are coordinated around the visual intent and the conditions of use. We work with architects and designers to establish samples and approval points before production.
Hardwood Species
Natural Color, Grain and Commercial Character
White Oak
Architectural grain and a versatile neutral tone suited to hospitality interiors, restaurant tables and contemporary casework.
Maple
A clean, light hardwood with subtle movement for bright commercial interiors and controlled finish palettes.
Parota
A broad tropical hardwood with flowing grain and warm contrast, often selected for large live-edge table tops, bar tops and statement millwork.
Monkeypod
Large-scale tropical slabs with dramatic color and natural edges for indoor or properly specified outdoor statement tables.
Sapele
A durable exterior-capable hardwood with warm color and ribboned grain for hospitality furniture and outdoor applications.
Cherry
Warm reddish-brown color that deepens with age, with a fine grain suited to refined commercial furniture and millwork.
Ash
A pale hardwood with pronounced open grain and reliable strength for contemporary tables, seating and architectural furniture.
Hickory
Exceptional hardness, bold grain and natural color variation for durable furniture with unmistakable character.
Live-Edge Construction
Four Ways to Achieve Our Live Edge Tables
Supplemented Slab
A compatible flitch is added to a seamless slab to reach the specified width while retaining strong natural-edge character. Typical finished thickness is approximately 1⅝–1¾ inches.
Bookmatched or Multi-Flitch
Related flitches from the same tree are arranged for balanced movement and greater width. Typical finished thickness is approximately 1¾–2¼ inches.
River Table
Two live-edge walnut slabs frame a cast resin channel, preserving the natural contours of each edge while creating a distinctive central feature. Resin color, transparency and layout are specified for the project.
Full-Width Single Slab
One exceptional slab provides the entire tabletop width for the most direct expression of the tree. Availability depends on species, length and required scale.
Stone Surfaces
Natural Movement or Engineered Consistency
Marble
Distinctive veining and depth for feature tables and counters where the design team accepts the natural patina and maintenance profile.
Quartzite
Natural stone with dramatic movement and strong performance. Each slab is reviewed for color, veining, layout and required structural support.
Engineered Quartz
Repeatable color, controlled pattern and practical commercial care, demonstrated by our 20-foot Alera Group conference table.
Architectural Metals
Structure, Detail and Finish
Architectural steel supports long spans, stone surfaces and custom base geometries. Natural steel, stainless steel, brass and copper can remain expressive or be patinated, clear-coated, painted or powder coated to coordinate with the interior palette.
- Welded architectural steel bases
- Powder-coated indoor and outdoor finishes
- Natural, blackened and patinated steel
- Brass and copper trims or accents
- Coordinated stone-support structures
Performance Finish Systems
Specified for Daily Hospitality Use
Indoor Hospitality
Commercial topcoats and sealers selected for repeated cleaning, spills, abrasion and the heat exposure of everyday serviceware, including hot restaurant dishes.
Outdoor Environments
Monkeypod, sapele, cypress, iroko/teak and project-appropriate metals are evaluated with drainage, sun, moisture and maintenance requirements.
Approval Process
Material samples, finish samples, shop drawings and care expectations establish a clear approved direction before fabrication.
