Why Choose D.I. Designs for trade furniture

Quality, statement pieces

Statement furniture featured throughout a property helps a space stand out, transforming it from just a room into one filled with possibility. Well-crafted pieces with a strong visual presence can instantly elevate a space, making it feel more refined. This high-end presentation helps encourage customers in their decision making, which can also support a higher perceived value and stronger asking price.

Bespoke furniture options

Our specialist team takes the time to understand your style preferences and project goals, delivering bespoke staging furniture tailored to your requirements. Using CAD software, each concept is carefully developed to refine the design and perfect every detail. Once approved, the furniture is produced and delivered directly to you. Please note, this service is subject to minimum order quantities.

Bespoke trade furniture

Wholesale furniture for large orders

Wholesale access allows clients to source coordinated furniture for property staging, making it easier to achieve a cohesive look across entire portfolios.

Why choose trade furniture over retail?

Trade furniture is the perfect choice for any kind of commercial, leisure or professional setting, where items will receive repeated or heavy use. These items are an investment in the future of your business, and are designed to last.

Improved durability

Trade furniture is designed with heavy usage in mind, and created to withstand the rigours of busy environments. Our pieces will easily outlast retail furniture, even with daily use.

Designed for repeated use

Professional finish

Our furniture is designed with professionals in mind from the start. Every product is carefully crafted to deliver a high-grade fit and finish that’s hard to replicate with retail furniture.
