MILLWORK
Made-to-measure woodwork for any room. Paneling, trim, feature pieces, all designed and built to spec.
Custom millwork is made-to-measure woodwork (paneling, trim, feature pieces) designed for your space. Purpose Design+Build designs it, matches the right fabricator, and manages the install.
Millwork is the category that ties a whole home together: wall paneling, wainscoting, coffered ceilings, window seats, trim packages, and one-off feature pieces. We design the profiles and proportions to match your home's era and your taste, then match the job to the right fabricator on our bench and manage the install. Because it is made to measure, it fits walls that are never quite square and reads as original architecture.

How much does custom millwork cost in Chicago?
Every custom millwork project is priced after a paid design consult, not off a flat menu, because scope and materials vary. Request an estimate and we send a ballpark range within two business days, then lock a firm number at the consult.
What does the custom millwork process look like?
We listen, design it with you, lock the plan and budget, match you with the right builders, and manage the build. You approve before anything is built.
