Is everything custom-made?BFA furniture is made-to-order so we can eliminate waste and keep limited inventory on hand in the studio. Our process is divided into "made-to-order" and "custom" pathways, which distinguishes our catalog of tried-and-true original designs from the open-ended possibilities of custom fabrication.

Why is lead time so long?At BFA, it is essential to create with care, precision and conscientiousness, and lead time is a large part of what makes our process so effective. Furniture orders are entered on a first-come-first-serve basis. Due to high demand, all orders are subject to a minimum of 8 weeks lead to completion, with most orders requiring 12-14 weeks. Custom orders can be subject to open-ended timelines. It doesn't take 8-12 weeks to build your furniture. The first 4-6 weeks is dedicated to design details, including wood, finish and handle selections, renderings, and completing order ahead of yours (we are thankful to be very busy). Rush fees are considered on a case-by-case basis. Get in touch to inquire.
-
Can I choose the wood you use?For a LiveEdge project, yes! We will present a selection of slabs for your consideration based on the design brief. If the winner isn't there in the first round, we can offer a second batch based on your input the first time around. Third rounds of slab selections are available on a case-by-case basis and incur additional costs. For a custom project, you can have input! Our designers and craftspeople are highly skilled and come with a mountain of experience - wood selection is both an art and a science. Once we have selected the material for your project, you can have veto power to determine the overall wood layout (this must be determined upon order placement). Most commonly, the way we select and lay out the wood is how you decide to keep it. Made-to-order furniture comes standard with our renowned wood selection process: each piece is hand-selected for its structural and aesthetic qualities, for overall balance of color and grain, and prized patterns are given priority positioning. It is common to find cathedral grain alternating direction in a tabletop, for a headboard's crown rail to feature iridescent curl, and for a door frame to showcase subtle "ying-yang" coloring.

Do you offer visualization services?Yes! Your made-to-order or custom furniture can come with 3D renderings of each piece to scale, excluding made-to-order seating.
-
Can I change or cancel my order?Cancellation/Refunds All orders are considered firm and are not subject to cancellation. Deposits and balances are nonrefundable. Within 14 days of placing your order, a deposit can be transferred to another piece or credited towards a future project. Changes We do our best to accommodate changes to your existing order when possible (it's easy to add to an order, harder to change the size of your bedframe). Changes to existing orders are considered on a case-by-case basis. Outstanding TBDs, certain changes, and other decisions made by you may affect the final balance amount due. After a deposit is placed, we will send a digital order to you via email. This copy serves as the order of record. Certain furniture orders will require written confirmation. In the case of an order requiring written confirmation, orders may not be placed with the workshop, and lead time may not begin until written confirmation is received. Changes to orders after initial confirmation may be subject to additional written confirmation.
