Made Only for You

Custom Commissions

Your vision, realized in rare wood

The Commission Process

How Custom Orders Work

Every HPFA piece is made to order β€” but a commissioned piece takes that a step further. You choose the species, the dimensions, the shape, the finish, and even the style of epoxy void-filling. The result is a piece of wall art made only for your space, that will never be replicated.

Our commission process begins with a consultation β€” a free 30-minute conversation (by phone, video, or in-studio) where we learn about your space, your tastes, and your vision. From there, we identify available slab options and present you with photographic choices before any work begins.

Throughout the creation process, we document each stage photographically and provide progress updates. When complete, your piece arrives with a full certificate of authenticity, species documentation, and a care guide.

    Step 2: Slab Selection

    We photograph available slabs and send you options. You choose the exact piece of wood your art will be made from.

    Step 3: Design Agreement

    We agree on dimensions, shape, finish style, and mounting. A 50% deposit confirms your commission and locks in your slab.

    Step 4: Creation & Delivery

    We craft your piece over 6–16 weeks, send photo updates, and ship it with white-glove crating when complete.
