Van Gogh Designs has been designing and manufacturing high-quality, upholstered
furniture in Canada for over 25 years.
We consider every piece of furniture we make to be a work of art. We think of our
customers as artists as well and we love creating custom furniture that turns
their design vision into reality. We have showrooms in BC and Ontario
where we display our furniture. You can come to our showrooms to experience our
hundreds of fabrics and our huge variety of styles.
We manufacture all of our furniture here in Canada
in our 100,000 square foot production facility in South Surrey, BC.
The first step in the production process is to ensure that we have the fabric in stock.
The fabric is then moved to the CNC machine where it is cut.
We program the CNC machine to cut the fabric to the right size and shape for
each piece of furniture.
For certain patterned fabrics, we hand cut the fabric to ensure the proper
positioning of the pattern on the piece. Once the fabric is cut, it is then given
to the Sewing Department to be sewn.
We use Baltic Birch Wood for our frames, which makes them very strong and durable.
The dimensions for each wood frame are programmed into the CNC machine on a schedule.
Each piece of the furniture's wood frame is then cut on the CNC machine.
The frames are then assembled by the framers.
The assembled frames are placed in a queue.
Depending on the style, either webbing or springs are installed for the seat and backs.
The piece then gets put on the upholstery line.
Here is a sofa being upholstered. We start by upholstering the deck of the sofa,
then the arms, then the back and finally, we attach the dust cover.
Here is an example of the bed being upholstered.
This chair is being decorated with nailheads.
The next step of the production process is filling the seat cushions,
back inserts and throat pillows. Depending on the style, they are either
filled with foam fiber or a mixture of fiber and feather. For fiber filled back
cushions and toss pillows, fiber is fluffed in this machine
we then fill the pillows and cushions with the fiber.
For foam seat cushions, we compress the foam when filling the cushions to
create the snug fit,
For feather seat cushions, the foam is inserted into a pouch that is filled
with a mixture of feather and fiber. All the components then go to the Quality
Control Department where we assemble the finished piece. The legs are attached,
cushions are arranged.
Each piece is carefully inspected to make sure that it lives up to our high
standards for quality of workmanship.
After the piece has passed our vigorous quality control process, it is carefully
wrapped to protect it during shipping
From here, the wrapped furniture is then loaded into our trucks and shipped to
its destination
