Craze 

It could be called a classic if you lived in Italy, here in the U.S. it is more of a fad. Not that many people have a built-in pizza oven and over the many years of doing interior design, I was never asked to design one. Linda K. Kusmer, Interior Design Consultant

Buying What You Love

​​When customers come into the store, they often have somewhat of a plan but depending on merchandise, that may change. Finding big things, like mirrors and tables, are easy. Lots of times they find something they love and weren’t even looking in that vein. I always recommend buying what you love, even if you don’t have a place for it at the moment, you can often work it into your scheme.

Unique Uses

Like other aspects of interior design, custom furniture and cabinetry occur on a spectrum. There are terrific bespoke examples made by thoughtful craftsmen, and then, there are not-so-good ones. Rook Fine Furniture, founded by three craftsmen—Ken Stahl, Cory Herweck and Shawn Hoven—falls under the former category. They boast a passion for elevating furniture design and construction that zeros in on the nitty gritty details while producing work that runs the gamut of all kinds of fine furniture to custom kitchen cabinetry and other built-ins.
