Studio Other designs custom, scalable furniture solutions that bring each client’s unique vision to life, while meeting their distinct needs and reinforcing their brand aesthetic. The company partners with architects, designers and brands that embrace being different well as clients that are emotionally engaged in the process, willing to take risks and ready to roll up their sleeves to help make creative concepts a reality.
