Bay Area corporate events are judged by an audience that builds products for a living and notices when something was assembled rather than designed. Conference hospitality suites, campus launches, rooftop receptions above the Embarcadero, executive dinners in the Presidio — the furniture is the part of the room that a production team fully controls.
We design and hand-build much of our inventory in California from locally sourced wood, so we can build to a brand rather than only rent to one: custom bars, branded surfaces, colour-matched finishes and pieces made for a single activation. We have supplied furniture for events with Louis Vuitton, Visa, Four Seasons, Toyota, Red Bull and Montblanc.

- Product launches and press events

What Bay Area production teams need from a furniture vendor
The furniture is rarely the hard part. These are:
- Certificate of insurance naming the venue or campus, provided as standard
- Campus security and dock bookings handled as part of the plan, not on the day
- City load-in reality — permitted street access, freight lifts by the hour, hill approaches
- Holds before procurement closes, so the pieces are still there when the PO lands
- Custom and branded builds made in our own shop
- One point of contact who answers during the build
What a Bay Area activation costs
Production budgets get built before the creative is locked, so here are the bands we see, at the prices published on our site. Delivery is quoted separately once we have the address and the load-in window.
| Press day or pop-up 50–100 guests, 1–2 days | 2–3 lounge groupings, one bar, cocktail tables — roughly $5,000 to $9,000 |
|---|---|
| Mid-size activation 150–300 guests | 5–8 lounge groupings, two bars including a custom branded build, dining and cocktail tables — roughly $9,000 to $22,000 |
| Flagship or multi-day build | Ten groupings and up, multiple branded bars, full tableware and custom fabrication — from $22,000 |
A lounge grouping is one sofa, two lounge chairs, a coffee table and two side tables, and runs $700 to $1,400 depending on the pieces. Custom and branded bars are quoted per build from our own shop. Bay Area work carries a $5,000 minimum order, which most activations clear on the lounge alone.
Where we load in across the Bay Area
Production spaces in this market split three ways, and each one decides the schedule before the design does.
- Warehouse and raw spaces in the Dogpatch, SoMa and the East Bay — freight access, no finished floors to protect, long build windows
- Hotel and conference space downtown and around Moscone — dock bookings, in-house exclusivity to check, tight strike windows
- Corporate campuses down the Peninsula and in the South Bay — security clearance, badge lists and delivery windows that do not move
- Outdoor and waterfront sites — the Presidio, piers and rooftops, where wind decides what can stand uncovered
Send the venue and the run of show and we will come back with access, load-in and strike timings before anything is quoted.
How it works
- Send the brief or the deck. Dates, venue, scope and the look.
- We quote against it and flag anything that will not fit the space or the schedule.
- We hold the pieces and issue the COI and vendor paperwork the venue or campus needs.
- We deliver, install and strike with our own crew, to your run of show.
Frequently asked questions
Do you actually deliver to the Bay Area?
Yes, with our own crew and our own trucks. Northern California carries a $5,000 minimum order and a delivery charge quoted by distance and access, both confirmed in writing before you book. Most activations clear the minimum on the lounge and bar alone.
Do you provide a certificate of insurance?
Yes, as standard, naming the venue or campus.
Can you build custom or branded pieces?
Yes. We hand-build in California, so branded bars, colour-matched finishes and one-off pieces are part of what we do.
Can you work to a conference build schedule?
Yes. Tell us the dock times and the run of show when you brief us so crew hours are priced in.
How far in advance should we brief you?
As early as you have dates. We hold inventory before budget approval within reason — tell us the decision date.
