Media Producer's Standing Desk

Shota's a tremendous talent who has the unique ability to translate a thought or mood into a beautiful piece of furniture. We were especially impressed by the pre-design interview, where he asked a variety of questions about our likes and dislikes. He also visited our house to see the room where the table would sit, just to ensure what he designed fit with the overall aesthetic. After the visit, he presented us with some initial sketches, which he then refined based on our feedback. The final piece is stunning. It's perfectly executed, and is an immediate classic that will be passed from one generation to the next. In short, I have no doubt that someday someone will look in our dining room, gasp and ask us "is that an original Yamaguchi?!" He's that good.

The project that Shota of SYD completed for me was done as promised with a degree of expertise and attention to detail that exceeded my expectations. While this desk was not of the highest quality, it was perfect for the guest room in style but not size. Shota understood exactly what I wanted done and executed the re-size so expertly that one cannot see where a change was made. The fact that he treated this rather mundane (for the artisan he is) project with respect and craftsmanship speaks to his professionalism. I have no qualms about recommending SYD for any projects, and I will definitely be having Shota do further work for me.
