You deserve the piece of furniture you’ve been dreaming of

Custom furniture that is a reflection of you

The reason why you can't find what you’re looking for is because it doesn't exist… yet

 

Interior Designers & Architects

For me, furniture is a collaborative process. I work in partnership with interior designers to create unique pieces with personal, bespoke touches.

Reach out to schedule a consultation, look at samples, & discuss your project.

Define your client’s home with custom furniture that will last for generations.

Designed and crafted for you

Combining disparate materials like concrete, wood, and steel, I use one to balance another.

I honor the honesty of each material, staying true to their nature, understanding their imperfections, utilizing their structural abilities, and embracing their aesthetic resonance.

Wood Furniture

Concrete Furniture

Bespoke pieces that create conversation & deepen connection with those you love.

How to create your custom piece:

Capture Your Story & Style

In our discovery meeting, I'll hear your vision behind the unique piece you want created. This is custom furniture built differently - your story becomes embedded. We’ll intertwine your story with that of the tree - creating conversational pieces for your next gathering and for the next generation.

Design & Build

After you see and touch possible materials for your project, we'll collaborate on a design. Throughout the build, you’ll gain behind-the-scenes access through studio visits and routine updates as I craft your piece. There is great satisfaction in knowing that you had a hand in creating your piece.

Enjoy Forever

When people see your piece, they won’t help but comment on the beauty and attention to detail. Your furniture will be made with integrity and strength, built to stand the test of time. This is quality furniture that will carry your story in its detail - an heirloom to pass on for generations. 

What makes Alicia Dietz Studios different?

With each commission, every detail is left open for us to fill with your own, unique design.

The quality and craftsmanship are superior to anything you’ll find on a showroom floor. Although mass-produced products are often more convenient than handmade pieces, quality is lost in the process. My mission is to create furniture that not only stands the test of time through expert craftsmanship, but for your piece to serve as a focal point in your home.

I'd love to work with you on your next piece of furniture.

A special thanks to Michele Song, @SewSongBoutique for the beautiful photography.

Transformation Stories

Testimonals
Live Edge Waterfall Media Table

“What became obvious about Alicia is her true knowledge of design, material, and construction. In our first meeting, she talked us through designs and the process of making the piece. Through each step, she took the time to educate us on all the intricacies of wood itself. With her expertise, I realized that my pieces was in good hands.”

  • Dennis – Henrico, VA

Concrete, Steel, and Walnut Bar

“Each studio visit brought with it a new sense of understanding of the craftsmanship and dedication required to make quality furniture. Alicia took us through the entire process step by step to produce a truly unique piece in our home”.

  • Tom & Rene – Cleveland, OH

Live Edge Dining Table

“Alicia worked with my husband and I to create the dining table we always wanted. I saw the project go from 4 pieces of wood into an 8-person table. Every time we have family and friends over, I can’t help but point out all the subtle details that make my table so beautiful and unique. This table is a piece of fine art in our home.”

  • Michele – Henrico, VA

Live Edge Floating Shelf

“Right after we hung the shelf and put our plants and books on it, we stepped back and said, "this room is complete". That felt awesome.”

  • Tracy – Richmond, VA

Bridge Wood & Steel Bar Stools

“The behind-the-scenes access and progress updates were WAY beyond our expectations. The documentation provided was mind blowing - I don't know how Alicia finds the time to give that level of documentation.”

  • Steve & Beth – Mechanicsville, MD

Craftsman Coffee Table

“I was hooked before final assembly. The shop visit was what convinced me that we had made a great choice selecting Alicia to build this piece. The wood had all of the figure that I was looking for and the design was spot on. When Alicia delivered the table, the piece was an absolute stand-out in our living room.

The piece feels different because I have a connection with the woman who designed and created it. Besides its beauty, it conveys an emotional investment by its artist that really comes across to everyone who sees it.”

  • Jake – Alexandria, DC

Corner Kitchen Cabinet

“It was wonderful working with Alicia and her unwavering commitment to get it just right. The finished cabinet installed in our home reinforces that it was a great investment. I loved being involved in every step of the process.”

  • Anna – Ashland, VA

One of my favorite parts of custom furniture is the collaborative designs I get to build. Last year, I created this pair of side tables in a dream project with @jtwdesignllc and @awlsnap . I cherish the clean lines and subtle details. A slotted dowe
A very dear friend recently reminded me that while I am very familiar with all the projects that come out of my shop, I've done a horrible job of showing you all ;-) So I'll start off with one where I got to showcase the beauty of the wood. It remin
An ode to Sarah and @almas.rva - It's a rare gift when an extremely talented maker owns a craft gallery in your city. I cannot thank Sarah enough for all that she does to promote craft here in Richmond and beyond. I truly appreciate her knowledge

As someone's whose bread and butter has been wood, it's hard to imagine I'd fall this much in love with concrete. But here we are. And for that, I'd like to thanks Mark Melonas at @lukeworks. My introduction to Mark was a cold call email, recommend
There are some profiles that continue to show themselves in my designs. This table includes several of them. The half lap legs and their gentle curves, the soft swoop of the top edges, and the hand carved underbevel are some of my favorites. As I
Sometimes, I get to be part of projects that are bigger than the piece. This was one of them. These concrete planters were part of a memorial bench for a teacher who passed away. She loved to be in the garden and to be surrounded by her students a
As I'm about to create another iteration of these live edge walnut + concrete pieces, I'm reminded just how much I love working with both components. Granted, there are significant challenges with merging two such disparate materials - they are qui
I could wax poetic for days on how much we can learn from trees - on how we celebrate their scars and embrace their imperfections - but sometimes you just have to step back and let the wood show its beauty. It's easy to do when the client gives you

This sling chair has quickly become one of my favorites. A wonderful collaboration with @awlsnap, we have many wood/leather combinations available as custom commissions. A maple wood + brown leather combination (1st photo) is available and on view @
