What thebuildhouse does

Buildhouse LLC, operating as Buildhouse, is a privately held custom furniture design and manufacturing company headquartered in Marietta, Georgia, with a design studio, shop, and showroom in East Point, Georgia. Founded in 2015, the company combines woodworking and metalworking (hot rolled steel, reclaimed oak, walnut) to produce bespoke furniture pieces and full interior environments for individual homeowners, architects, interior designers, and commercial entrepreneurs across hospitality, restaurant, corporate, retail, music/entertainment, and religious sectors.

Its offering spans three product lines: a ready-made catalog collection (e.g., Jordan Bed, Paige Bed, Harper Game Table, Gravity Ping Pong Table, Forest Table, Asher End Table, Elsa Chair, Dusk Console) including the SUBEAU sub-brand; custom commissions such as modular shelving, banquette seating, desks with reclaimed oak tops, pool tables, and directional signage; and complete environment projects for clients including Capitol Records, Reach Records, Ford Fry Restaurants, Brand Apart, Passion City Church, Chateau Elan, and others.

Buildhouse operates a pure direct-to-consumer, quote-based, project-based revenue model. All sales are initiated through a single physical showroom at the East Point, GA studio, supported by a website portfolio and an Instagram presence; there is no e-commerce, no marketplace listing, and no third-party distribution. Pricing is custom per order, billed as one-time project fees, with no disclosed pricing tiers, recurring revenue, or subscription component. Customer engagement begins with a "Book a Visit" call-to-action, after which the in-house design-and-build team scopes and manufactures to specification.
