The point of view

Built around real life

Dream it clearly. Build it honestly.

Furniture is personal. It sits in the rooms where families eat, work, drop bags, open mail, run businesses, and talk late after everyone else has gone quiet. That's why we start with the way the piece needs to live before we start talking about wood species, finish color, or joinery.

Matt Frate grew up around the workshops of his father and grandfather, then spent years leading branding, design, and communications work for major organizations. Still Am Studios brings those two worlds together: clear thinking, strong design, and the ability to make the thing real in a Canton shop.

Ways into the work

Designed for the room, built in the shop, and placed where it needs to live.

What we build

Choose a direction

Start with the closest fit. The exact shape of the project can get clearer once we understand the room and the problem.

  1. 01

    Custom Furniture Design

    Custom furniture design starts with the room, not a catalog photo. We talk through size, use, style, storage, wood, finish, and the small habits that matter. Then we turn that into a clear plan for a piece that fits the home, solves the problem, and feels like it belonged there from day one.

    Bespoke Furniture

    Bespoke furniture is for the project that shouldn't look like anyone else's. It may be a statement table, a special cabinet, a built-in bench, or a piece for a business lobby. We shape the idea, sketch the details, choose real materials, and build one piece for one purpose.

    Built-in Shelving

    Built-in shelving works best when it looks like the house was waiting for it. We look at wall spans, ceiling height, outlets, trim, and how the shelves will be used. Books, records, photos, baskets, and display pieces all need different spacing and strength. The details decide whether it feels custom.

    Handcrafted Tables

    Handcrafted tables carry a lot of daily life. Homework, meals, work calls, card games, holidays, and coffee all land there. We build tables around real use: stable bases, strong tops, good proportions, and finishes that can handle people. A table should look good and take a hit.

    Dining Table Maker

    A dining table maker has to think past the pretty top. The table needs enough room for chairs, knees, serving dishes, and the way your family actually sits. We size dining tables around the room first, then build with solid materials, clean lines, and a finish made for real meals.

    Solid Wood Furniture

    Solid wood furniture has weight, movement, grain, and a longer life than flat-pack pieces. We pay attention to joinery, wood movement, finish choice, and how the piece will age in a Georgia home. The goal isn't fragile furniture. It's furniture that gets better with use.

    Home Office Furniture

    Home office furniture should make work feel less patched together. We build desks, storage, shelves, and work surfaces around monitors, cables, files, printers, and the daily mess nobody puts in inspiration photos. The best home office pieces look calm because the hard thinking is hidden in the layout.

    Custom Desks

    Custom desks solve the problems standard desks ignore. Monitor depth, keyboard height, cable paths, drawers, leg room, and room layout all matter. We design desks for the way you work, whether that's a quiet home office in Canton or a front-facing workstation for a local business.

    Commercial Furniture

    Commercial furniture has to work hard and say something fast. Customers notice the counter, table, bench, display, or reception piece before they notice the details. Matt's background in branding helps here. We build furniture that supports the space, the customer experience, and the business behind it.

    Conference Tables

    Conference tables need presence, but they also need power, seating room, cable paths, camera angles, and durable finishes. We build meeting tables for real teams, not empty rooms. The right table helps a business feel settled, prepared, and serious without looking like a boardroom from a box store.

    Reception Desks

    Reception desks do a lot of work at once. They greet people, hide supplies, manage traffic, support staff, and set the tone for the brand. We design and build reception desks with storage, durability, and first impressions in mind, especially for local businesses that need the front door to feel intentional.

    Custom Benches

    Custom benches are simple until they're not. Entryways, dining rooms, mudrooms, windows, and retail spaces all need different heights, depths, bases, and storage options. We build benches around the exact spot they'll live, so they feel useful instead of squeezed into place.

    Built-in Mudrooms

    Built-in mudrooms are daily-life control centers. Shoes, backpacks, jackets, sports gear, dog leashes, and school papers all need a place to land. We design mudrooms for the way a family enters the house, then build cubbies, benches, hooks, drawers, and doors that can take the churn.

    Floating Shelves

    Floating shelves look clean because the hard part is hidden. The wall, blocking, hardware, shelf thickness, and load all matter. We build floating shelves that fit the span, hold real weight, and match the room instead of looking like a quick weekend add-on.

    Custom Storage Solutions

    Custom storage solutions start with the pile of stuff that has no home. We look at what needs to be stored, how often it's used, and what should stay hidden or visible. Then we build storage that fits the space and makes the room easier to live in.
