Mode Interiors was commissioned to refurbish a cherished bookcase for a private client as part of their interior enhancement project. The goal was to preserve the original character of the piece while updating it to suit the client’s refreshed living space. This refurbishment is a testament to our commitment to blending craftsmanship with design vision—breathing new life into furniture that holds personal and aesthetic value.
Surface Wear & Wood Damage
Challenge: The bookcase showed visible signs of wear, including scratches, fading, and aged wood.
Solution: Mode Interiors used advanced sanding and restoration techniques, followed by colour-matching to restore a uniform, rich finish while preserving its vintage appeal.
Blending with New Interior Design
Challenge: The client had recently renovated their living space and wanted the piece to integrate seamlessly.
Solution: We customised the stain and finish based on surrounding décor, ensuring harmony with modern tones while retaining the bookcase’s classic charm.
Tight Turnaround Requirements
Challenge: The client needed the refurbished bookcase ready ahead of a family event.
Solution: Our team adjusted workflow and prioritised the project—delivering exceptional results within the deadline, without compromising on quality.
The refurbished bookcase now stands proudly as a statement piece in the client’s home—refined, functional, and full of character. The transformation enhanced both the visual appeal and usability of the furniture, and the client expressed complete satisfaction with the result. This project reflects Mode Interiors’ ability to blend traditional craftsmanship with modern interior design principles, delivering bespoke solutions tailored to each unique space.
