How It Works

Our online product designer tool puts you in complete control, letting you design a product that perfectly fits your space and lifestyle. With up to 16 parts in various widths, heights, and depths, you can combine, stack, and arrange sections exactly how you want.

1. Design

A. Adjust to your size

Build your furniture by combining parts side by side and stacking them on top of each other to meet your desired width and height. You can add up to 7 parts horizontally (Part A–Part G) and an additional part on top of the bottom compartments. This allows a maximum width of 5.53 m (7 × 79 cm) and a maximum height of 3 m (2 × 1.5 m). The depth is adjustable between 15 cm and 70 cm to suit your space and needs.

B. Add the features

Our product designer tool offers a wide range of features designed to meet the most common needs when choosing furniture. Whether you are creating a compact coffee table or a full wardrobe, the system gives you the flexibility to design pieces that fit your space, style, and requirements perfectly.
