Most of my pieces cost between CHF 3,000 and CHF 10,000.

The price depends on:

• Size: a bigger piece needs more wood and more time.

• Wood: some species cost more than others.

• Other materials: metal, glass, fittings or anything else the piece needs.

• Construction: the more involved the design and joinery, the more it costs.

You get a fixed price, in two steps:

First conversation: we talk through your idea and I give you a rough price range.

Design: once dimensions and materials are worked out, I send you a quote with the final price.

Usually 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the piece. That covers everything from the first conversation through design and making to installation.

Smaller things, like a coffee table, a shelf or a chopping board, are often ready sooner.

Any species that grows in Switzerland and suits your piece. Most often:

• Maple

• Swiss stone pine

• Oak

• Ash

• Walnut

• Cherry

• Elm

Apart from Swiss stone pine, they're all hardwoods.

If there's a more exotic wood you have in mind, let's talk about it.

I use a natural wood oil I've trusted for years, made from pure plant oils, balsam resins and lightfast earth and mineral pigments. I never use lacquer, so the finished piece stays as natural as possible.

The oil comes in a wide range of tones, and we pick the right one together during the design phase.

Yes, gladly. A good part of my work is done together with designers like you.
