Guest experiences often hinge on atmosphere and design, and furniture plays a starring role in the world of hospitality. From luxurious case goods to custom seating, each piece contributes to a hotel’s overall aesthetic and functionality.
At the forefront of this specialized craft is Andaaz Manufacturing, a company that takes pride in its ability to turn designers’ visions into reality.
For Andaaz, there’s no such thing as a one-size-fits-all approach. Everything they produce is custom-made to bring creative ideas to life, delivering furniture that complements and enhances guest experience.
“Our mission is simple but ambitious: take the vision of designers and make it a reality,” says David Williams, president of Andaaz Manufacturing. “We don’t just make furniture; we create bespoke pieces that align perfectly with the designer’s concept and the hotel’s identity.”
Crafting the Future of Hospitality Design
From its inception, Andaaz has stood out for its innovative and customer-centric approach. The company doesn’t merely supply furniture—it partners with clients to co-create pieces that combine aesthetics, functionality, and durability. This process begins with one guiding principle: every product is unique because every project is unique.
Designers come to Andaaz with concepts ranging from detailed blueprints to abstract ideas. The company’s team works closely with them to transform those ideas into functional, beautiful furniture.
“Our strength lies in collaboration,” says Williams. “We’ve built a team that understands not just manufacturing but also design and architecture, ensuring that no detail is overlooked.”
Precision Every Step of the Way
What sets Andaaz apart is its meticulous process, honed over years of working on high-profile hospitality projects. Each piece of furniture undergoes a six-step journey:
1. Understanding the Vision: The process begins with detailed discussions with designers and architects. Andaaz’s team reviews the project’s aesthetic goals, functional requirements, and environmental factors, such as climate, geographic setting, property attributes and guest usage patterns.
2. Material Selection and Feasibility Studies: Every piece is crafted with materials tailored to the project’s needs, whether it’s weather-resistant finishes for beachfront properties or sturdy laminates for high-traffic areas.
3. Shop Drawings and Prototyping: Andaaz produces detailed technical drawings to ensure every design element is accounted for, from built-in electrical components to structural reinforcements. Prototypes, known as “white bodies,” are created to test functionality and stability before full production begins.
4. Rigorous Quality Control: During production, Andaaz maintains a team of U.S.-based quality control specialists at its factories. This ensures that each piece meets the exacting standards clients have come to expect.
5. Sustainable Packaging and Shipping: Once completed, products are packed with environmentally friendly materials and shipped using Andaaz’s in-house logistics team to ensure safe delivery.
6. On-Site Installation Support: The final step involves assisting clients during the installation process, ensuring each piece is securely placed and ready for use.
A Portfolio of Custom Excellence
Andaaz’s commitment to customization is evident across its product categories: case goods and seating. Each product is designed to meet the unique requirements of a project, ensuring it not only fits the space but also enhances its character.

● Case Goods: Tables, dressers, headboards, nightstands and desks form the cornerstone of Andaaz’s offerings. Every piece is crafted with the specific environment in mind, whether it’s for a high-end urban boutique hotel or a sprawling resort. The company uses high-pressure laminates, solid wood, and plywood to ensure durability while maintaining a polished, high-end look.
● Seating: Where form meets function. Andaaz specializes in creating chairs, lounges, and benches that are as comfortable as they are durable. Recognizing the wear and tear that seating endures in high-traffic areas, the company has developed innovative solutions such as reupholsterable cushions to extend each piece’s lifespan.
Overcoming Unique Challenges
The true measure of Andaaz’s success lies in its ability to handle challenging, complex projects. One standout example involved a Southern California mountain resort undergoing its first renovation in over two decades. The property posed unique challenges, including irregular room dimensions and outdated infrastructure. Andaaz worked closely with the design team to create custom furniture that accommodated the resort’s quirks while enhancing its rustic charm.
“The rooms were anything but standard,” recalls Williams. “We had to customize every piece, from adjusting door placements on cabinets to altering dimensions for tight corners. The end result was a cohesive look that blended seamlessly with the resort’s natural surroundings.”
Sustainability at the Core
As the hospitality industry increasingly prioritizes sustainability, Andaaz has embraced eco-friendly practices at every level of its operations. The company holds the prestigious MindClick Achiever Level certification, a testament to its dedication to sustainable manufacturing. Over the past five years, Andaaz has switched to 100% recyclable packaging materials and adopted water-based finishes to reduce its environmental footprint.
“Being sustainable isn’t just a trend; it’s a responsibility,” Williams emphasizes. “Our clients want to know that the products they’re investing in are not only high-quality but also environmentally conscious.”
Ultimately, Andaaz’s mission is about more than just furniture—it’s about enhancing the guest experience. Every piece is designed to contribute to the atmosphere of a space, ensuring that guests feel comfortable, inspired, and cared for.
The Andaaz Promise
“When a designer comes to us with a vision, we see it as our responsibility to bring that vision to life in a way that elevates the entire property,” says Williams.
Andaaz continues to redefine what’s possible in hotel furniture manufacturing. By combining innovative design, meticulous craftsmanship, and a commitment to sustainability, the company has earned its reputation as a trusted partner for designers and architects worldwide.
“We’re not just making furniture; we’re creating experiences,” Williams concludes. “And we take immense pride in turning each designer’s dream into a tangible, lasting reality.”
