Arches, integrated lighting, and a disappearing desk. This custom build was all about the details.
We wanted to create a space that feels like a gallery but works like an office.

Who would not love to come home to a mudroom like this??!! I loved the combination of the SW iron ore and the natural rift sawn white oak. One of my favorite combinations. YOU MUST see the before pictures to get a sense of this transformation! Monika Ross' design executed by Ray's Custom Wood Work Inc. For all your custom needs. As always, please share if you like what you see.

I must admit, I was always scared to build a Murphy bed because I had no idea what went into it. This was my first shot at one. You be the judge, but frankly, I think I nailed it. If you agree, please share!

There's so much that went into it. This is my design people, put together one piece at a time. Underneath that beautiful Tricorn black paint is actual solid rift sawn white oak. I love everything about it. Pull out shelves on each side to be used when the bed is down, Usb outlets behind the bed, LED lights under each shelf to light up the art that will go on display and some big storage overhead for comforters and pillows when bed is not in use.
When not in use, it's just an ice conversation piece for this home office.

Thank you for sharing pictures of your finished dream kitchen! Special thanks for allowing me to take part in putting all this together. It looks amazing! Congratulations.

From the custom hood, to the wine rack made to fill an otherwise empty space, the walnut island and two tone base and wall cabinets! It's all amazing!

I'm specially loving the two-tone look on this African Mahogany vanity I made for a very special couple. I made sure to carry on the grain pattern throughout the drawer fronts and got a color match on the metal hardware to use to paint the black cabinet. Notice the matching floating shelves!!
I also waited until all the plumbing was in place to build the wrap around drawers to be able to maximize the storage space and use every inch available. Thats one of the benefits of having something custom made, you choose every detail to make it unique. Simple, Bold, Custom.

Keep tuned! There's more to come!

I have to start off by saying that pictures don't do justice for this build. It's something a bit different. The goal was to make this piece stand out in a totally bright room. The piano alone made a great impression, and we took a risk to carry that same black to this unit and aohh my, it looked amazing. Black is a very tricky color to get right, materials have to be perfect, joinery immaculate, without that, you couldn't get as nice of a smooth clean finish on that black paint.

Hello fans! What project do you have in mind that nobody else can do for you? Let me have a shot at it, I won't disappoint you! 😉

Im sharing with you a pretty old project I never posted back in February of last year. This became the centerpiece of the room. I love how the lighting brought this to life. The recessed speaker in the middle, the doors with faux drawer fronts to mix things up a little bit and the ship lap behind the tv made this one of a kind.
Always looking forward to adding my special touch to my creations.

You know where to find me!

Here's a small project I had completely forgotten about. I like it because it shows the potential when you have custom work by Ray's Custom Woodwork.
I provided a place to drop the wires from the tv to the game console, cable, etc so everything can be kept within the unit and out of sight. Figuring out the design to make it functional and still look good is always a challenge, but that's why I love what I do.
Got a project you think is unrealistic? Hit me up, I can make it happen.
