Finished Project- The Melting Pot

Everything is better dipped in cheese.  Or chocolate.  Here's a restaurant that celebrates fondue, great concept right?!  And we haven't even gotten to the interior yet! The seating for this restaurant has been fun for the entire shop, the upholstery department very much enjoyed the new materials in the metal frames, and the [...]

New booth project

A new customer of ours is collaborating with our designer for all of the seating in their restaurant.  We love a creative collaborative effort!  This fabric was initially chosen to be tufted for the booths.  On the prototype the pattern looked really cool tufted, changing the lines with the fabric folding, but the material had [...]

Rearranging Restaurant Furniture

How often do you walk into your favorite restaurant and find they've rearranged?  *awkward pause while I anticipate inquisitive looks* Yeah, me either. Everything is in exactly the same place, or there has been a recent remodel with entirely new fixtures, lighting has changed, etc... and the booths still might be in the same [...]

What’s new in the shop… this year

We love making booths.  Our upholstery department has been having a great time with some new custom booths, with some great fabrics and finishes that we all can't help but get excited about! Sue does most of our sewing, which cracks me up because it reminds me of [...]

What’s new in the shop…

Booths!  Our upholstery team is hard at it with some fantastic seating in the works.  They have turned out some beautiful pieces lately! These ladies (and gentlemen) are cranking out booths with efficiency and accuracy, and we are so proud of how this department [...]

Minnesota Millwork goes Global

New booth design!

We love designing custom pieces for our customers.  So when we had the opportunity to work with the design team for one of our favorite repeat customers on a new booth design we were thrilled to make them some prototypes. This is a new style of booth back for us with the fabric foldover.  Paired with [...]
