Your Vision. Your Reality.

Custom Furniture Designed and Built in Seattle

Here at Focal Fabrication we appreciate original ideas and the design challenges that come along with them. In our opinion, no idea should be considered impossible and our passion is helping people create things they might not be able to find online or in a store.

Never been done before? No problem. We love trying new prototyping and manufacturing techniques to build whatever you can envision. Whether it’s Woodworking, CAD Modeling, 3D Printing, Welding, or Machining we have the industry experience and desire to make a truly unique focal point for your room, house, or city block.

Had my good friend @yoyomosk swing by the shop to capture some process shots for a new dining table. An amazing eye behind the lens. #woodwork #furniture #custommade #furnituredesign #photographer #photographer #workshop

Job done on this Wallingford built in bench! It was the ideal partnership. Working with someone who has a great eye and trusts the builder to make recommendations and the right edits for a great final result! 👏 @stvn_goodell #custommade #customf

Prototyping is such a fun process! A year of testing and I've made V2 of my camp kitchen concept. Lessons learned and improvements made. Getting very close to a marketable product! #woodworking #prototyping #camping #carcamping #outdoors #campkit

Sneak peak into some of the design process. Starts with pencil and paper. Then to the computer for non descriptive blocks. Then hours of refinement and details. The start of a bed frame idea in the works! Still a long way to go… #design #sketchup #sketchup3d #bedframe #furnituredesign #furniture

A fun project from last year! Such a pleasure to be a part of the growing creative community in Seattle. Rebecca from @ballardclaystudio was looking for unique work/showcase tables for her new pottery studio. The result was these solid ash beauties!

People often ask, "What is your favorite piece you've ever done?" Well...I think I have a new answer. This walnut credenza was built with equal parts of patience, fundamental skills, challenges, and many splinters. It features a milled
People often ask, "What is your favorite piece you've ever done?" Well...I think I have a new answer. This walnut credenza was built with equal parts of patience, fundamental skills, challenges, and many splinters. It features a milled slab top, solid walnut tambour doors and push to open drawers just to name a few. Thanks for looking :) #furniture #furnituredesign #interiordesign #interior #custom #custommade #woodworking #seattle #walnut #woodslab #cabinet
