For Media Cabinet 2I am 100% satisfied with our experience in working with Andrew & Cannery Village. Andrew took a rough sketch and brought it to a reality that far exceeded my expectations. My media console is exactly what I wanted and fits perfectly in my home. The entire process was very easy because of the open line of communication that Andrew kept going along with his expertise in his field providing advice and taking the time to make sure I was comfortable with final design choices. I highly recommend Cannery Village for your custom project and I will definitely be working with Andrew and Cannery Village again in the near future.

For possible project?This was my first experience with Custom Made. I had my heart set on a live edge wood slab door mounted on barn door hardware for a new master bedroom. Andrew's creation was above and beyond my highest hope. His communication is attentive and detailed. It is clear he is invested in his work on every level. My door so much more than a door...it a piece of artwork, it is stunning and I love it. Andrew built a custom crate for the door to travel from his shop in Newport Beach to my home in Montana. It arrived without a scratch. I could not be happier. Thank you Andrew, it was a pleasure.

For Slab TableAndrew made a beautiful dining table for me. His craftsmanship is extraordinary. He took an idea, for a thin lived edged table, and made it structurally sound and a work of art. I wish I could submit a photo because it is amazing.

For Arthur Umanoff Inspired 24 foot benchAndrew brought our vision to life in this 20' custom made bench seating for our upscale coffee shop. He worked closely with us during the initial phases to ensure that not only would it be beautiful it would be functional as well. I have to say that the packaging and shipping to Hawaii was amazing; he custom built a crate to house all the components which were assembled on site and it was easy to assemble. I would definitely use Andrew again for another project and I recommend him to anyone wanting a beautifully made custom built project.

For Modern Rift Cut Oak Dining Room TableWe are beyond thrilled with the table Andrew created. The craftsmanship is exceptional, and the process could not have been more fluid, more professional or more enjoyable. Andrew was fantastic at every step of the way, translating our vision into an exceptional one-of-a-kind piece. Our project really was a complete collaboration: Andrew's creative and design input was invaluable. Our table is the amazing piece that it is because of the deep thought and care (both in the design and build phases) that Andrew put in. I cannot overstate how great it was to work with Andrew: he made it so easy and so fun. Our view is that it was also tremendous value for what it is. We're already thinking about what else we can have him make! We're typically tough judges and don't give out "good grades undeservedly. But we absolutely give Andrew the highest marks!

For Blonde onyx colored bathroom mirrorThis was my first experience with Custom Made and I couldn't be happier. Andrew was able to take a concept and create a perfect tangible result. He is a perfectionist all the way to the final installation. It was a real joy to work with someone who enthusiastically took on a creative endeavor and made it happen based simply upon an idea. Besides his talent, he is a delightful person and so easy to work with. The photo shows the final result: a Geo Ponti inspired design mirror that matches the onyx bathroom counter perfectly and fits perfectly into the space.
