Furniture

Brokenpress Design+Fabrication simply put, is Mid-Century Modernized. We create furniture with a mid-century feel, while accommodating modern living needs, with a nod to audiophiles.We're a husband and wife business based in the northwest side of Chicago featuring the work of Alexander Dunham, in partnership with Jennifer Bakija, better know as Ladybird. We are both longtime fans of mid-century styling and no strangers to music. Alex has played music longer than he has been building furniture and Ladybird is a vinyl crate digger, always looking to add to their collection.Don't let the word "custom" scare you away. Our pieces are made to order for a variety of reasons. This allows for customization in both size, wood species and specific needs of the client. Alex's listens to what their furniture needs are, then takes his fifteen plus years of experience making furniture and working with designers and architects to design the perfect piece. From there, he takes functional design alongside excellent craftsmanship to build a piece clients love.With the resurgence of vinyl, our audio credenza line, including the Standard and the Princeton, is championed by novice and serious audiophiles looking to find aesthetically pleasing component and record storage.Our hardwood surfboard tables look so authentic, that they've been mistaken for genuine vintage pieces. Custom fireplace surrounds and hutches, both freestanding and built in, are built with craftsmanship to last for generations, alongside high-traffic benches which need to withstand lots of wear and tear.
