We design and build reception desks, check-in desks and host stands for offices, studios and restaurants in our shop at 6401 Airport Blvd in Austin. Design happens in-house, and we draw shop drawings before anything is built.
Start with what the desk has to hold
A reception desk is also a workstation, and much of its design follows from what goes on and in it: monitors, printers, displays and storage. Tell us what it has to hold. Along with that, send:
- Dimensions of the space, or drawings.
- Finish ideas or a designer's spec.
- When you need it.
John Deere's Austin office
For John Deere's Austin office, under contract with Ryan Companies in spring 2022, we built a reception desk around a display box for a historic plow. We showed the design as renderings and a video before we built it.
The same job included a community table and a storage and printer room with counters, cubbies and lockable cabinets.
A check-in desk in corrugated steel
At an Ephemeral tattoo studio, we worked out 3D concepts for the check-in desk with Ephemeral's design lead. The finished desk is clad in the same powder-coated corrugated steel as the twelve private booths we built for the studio.
Other desks and furniture
We built the host stand at Jupiter Supper Club and a guest service station at Mañana Dos. Honest Mary's in Cedar Park got table tops and bases from us. In a West Austin home, we built a dining room credenza in stain-grade white oak plywood with six center drawers.
