The problem
Furniture builders in Berlin are scarce, expensive, and slow.
Searching for a furniture builder in Berlin returns four names, three of which are booked out twelve weeks. The fourth quotes €2,400 just to come and measure for a built-in desk you wanted under your stairs.
That's not a complaint about craftspeople: they're slow because they're scarce, and they're scarce because the work is genuinely skilled. What we can do is move design and cutting online. The studio generates four options sized to your room, a human cabinetmaker verifies the design, and a CNC mill cuts the panels.
You lose the in-person sketch session. You save the eight-week wait, two visits, and €1,500–€2,500 in labour. The wood and the fit are the same. Free to design today; production opens later in 2026.
Designed for Berlin homes. Shipped at launch.
Before-and-after comparison: Furniture builders in Berlin are scarce, expensive, and slow.
BeforeConcept
How it works
A furniture builder, in three online steps.
01
Photo + what you want built
Two photos of the space, three measurements, a sentence about what you want: 'a desk under the stairs,' 'a wardrobe for the alcove,' 'a dining table for six in a 3.4 m room.' The studio generates four concepts.
02
Real cabinetmaker reviews
A human cabinetmaker validates the concept for structural fit, hinge clearance, and material specs. You see an indicative quote, a bill of materials, and a target delivery date.
03
Delivered to Berlin at launch
When production opens later in 2026, pre-cut, pre-finished, pre-drilled panels arrive in 10–14 days. Two people, one afternoon. No power tools needed.

Furniture for Berlin homes
Built for Altbau, ready to move out with you.
Berlin furniture has two jobs: use the full height of an Altbau room, and survive the next move.
Height is the free real estate
With Altbau ceilings over three metres in Mitte, Prenzlauer Berg, and Kreuzberg, the cheapest storage in Berlin is vertical. Bookcases and wardrobes designed to your actual ceiling height, with clearance for stucco and picture rails, store half again what a standard 2.1-metre unit does on the same floor area.
A renter city needs movable furniture
Most of Berlin rents, and Kündigung means moving day. Our designs assemble with screws and cams, not glue, so a wardrobe can be taken apart, carried down a liftless Altbau staircase in flat panels, and rebuilt in the next apartment. Kein Schrank bleibt zurück.
From Eindhoven, across one border
Berlin sits a day from our planned Eindhoven hub by road freight, inside the EU single market: no customs, a 10–14 day delivery target, and transport emissions that stay inside our published carbon budget. Carriers and exact dates will be confirmed before ordering opens.
