The Port Colborne Museum just ordered our very first custom designed display case for our museum in an 1860s house. We couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Justin worked with me to design a perfect mix of modern and traditional to fit our Museum's aesthetic. He was very knowledgeable and professional and easy to work with. We look forward to working with Obsidian again for our next display cases.

Justin was excellent to work with. He was able to get our project done within our limited timeline. We considered doing an IKEA kitchen, but working with Justin was so much simpler. He took care of the details, and his price was very comparable to IKEA.

This advanced technology allows us to fine-tune every aspect of the design, from dimensions and materials to finishes and special features like lighting and security. You’ll be able to see a virtual representation of your display case, giving you the opportunity to make any adjustments before we proceed to the manufacturing stage. This ensures that the final product will be exactly as you envisioned, down to the smallest detail.

The use of software in our design process also allows for a seamless transition to manufacturing. Once the design is finalized and approved by you, our skilled artisans have all the information they need to start crafting your custom display case. This level of detail eliminates guesswork and ensures that the finished product aligns perfectly with the approved design, both aesthetically and functionally.

By incorporating advanced software into our design process, we’re able to offer a level of customization and precision that sets us apart in the industry. It’s another way we commit to exceeding your expectations, ensuring that the custom glass display case you receive is the custom glass display case you envisioned.
