Design, Engineer, Build.

Orange Chair is a full-service custom upholstery builder based in Cincinnati, Ohio. During my time there, I designed and engineered a wide range of projects, from residential ottomans to seating for five-star restaurants. Because all work was completed in-house, we maintained tight quality control and delivered custom solutions that many manufacturers could not offer. Projects often required scribing and fitting seating to uneven walls or existing architectural conditions, and I translated clients visions into engineered seating solutions that met these tight constraints.

Over 35 projects and clients.

Ramen shops, dive bars, taquerias, and breakfast nooks. From custom residential furniture, to architectural buildouts, every client has a story and a challenge. Ask me about my time at Orange Chair.
