Valley Studio — San Francisco
Valley Studio works to the trade with the San Francisco Bay Area’s design community — custom drapery, upholstery, reupholstery, shades, and furniture. We meet by appointment in San Francisco and serve designers across the city, Marin, the Peninsula, and Napa & Sonoma, with every commission fabricated in our New York and Van Nuys workrooms and delivered across the Bay Area since 1985.

Recent work for a San Francisco design studio
For a San Francisco design studio, we’ve fabricated across multiple residences — custom drapery, upholstered seating and headboards, upholstered walls, made-to-order furniture, and relaxed and flat Roman shades. Every piece was made by hand in our New York and Van Nuys workrooms and installed white-glove.
The photographs on these pages are from that work, shown without client or designer names.
Working with the Bay Area design trade
We work to the trade with leading Bay Area designers — including Nicole Hollis, The Wiseman Group, BraytonHughes, and Vanderbyl Design — as well as studios and clients across Marin, the Peninsula, and the Napa & Sonoma wine country.
Fabrication for these projects happens in our New York and Van Nuys workrooms; the San Francisco studio is for consultation and by-appointment meetings, with measuring and installation coordinated locally across the Bay Area.
One partner, every soft furnishing
Bay Area designers and architects use Valley Studio as a single fabrication partner — window treatments, upholstered seating, and bespoke pieces built to drawings and specified materials rather than pulled from a catalog.
We meet by appointment in San Francisco, measure on site, fabricate each commission in our workrooms, and coordinate delivery and installation across San Francisco and the wider Bay Area.
What we make in San Francisco
- Custom drapery — pleated, ripplefold, and hand-sewn treatments
- Custom upholstery — new furniture built to your design
- Reupholstery — restoring and recovering existing pieces
- Custom shades — Roman and specialty window shades
- Custom furniture — made-to-order upholstered pieces
How a San Francisco project runs with us
We work strictly to the trade — with the designer or architect, from your drawings, specifications, and chosen materials. We meet by appointment in San Francisco and measure on site across the city, Marin, the Peninsula, and up into Napa & Sonoma. Most Bay Area orders run C.O.M. (customer’s own material): you ship the specified fabric or leather to the fabricating workroom against the order.
Valley Studio does not operate a San Francisco workroom. Each commission is built by hand in our New York and Van Nuys workrooms, then delivered and installed across the Bay Area — so a San Francisco designer gets East Coast and Southern California craftsmanship with local measuring and installation.
Frequently asked questions
- Do you have a workroom in San Francisco?
We meet by appointment in San Francisco but do not fabricate there. Every Bay Area commission is built in our New York and Van Nuys workrooms, then delivered and installed across San Francisco, Marin, the Peninsula, and Napa & Sonoma.
- How does an out-of-state workroom serve a San Francisco project well?
We measure on site in the Bay Area, fabricate by hand in New York or Van Nuys, and ship to a local installation. For a San Francisco designer that means a single trade partner for drapery, upholstery, shades, and furniture, coordinated to one delivery across Marin, the Peninsula, or wine country.
- How does C.O.M. work for a Bay Area order?
You specify the fabric or leather and ship it to the fabricating workroom against the order. We confirm yardage from the drawings before cutting, so a San Francisco designer can source from any showroom and know the goods are reserved before fabrication begins.
- Do you install across the wider Bay Area?
Yes. We coordinate delivery and installation throughout San Francisco, Marin, the Peninsula, and Napa & Sonoma, scheduling around building access and site readiness for each project.
