This is a hard review to write because I can't quite word how I feel about what Paul Rene did to my home. I also have a hard time taking the pictures that would best showcase the work they did. So I'm just going to do my best. 1- My library is absolutely and insanely beautiful. The lines, the wood, the feeling, the craftsmanship are all one of a kind and special to my wife and I. 2- The sturdiness of the install is exceptional. There is a rolling ladder that actually rolls around a corner. That is not normal. It is beyond what you would expect, and just amazing to use. The track system that the ladder slides on is super unique and low profile. It is sturdy and functional. I love it. 3- The creativity Paul Rene employed to design and manufacture this library was beyond what I could have envisioned. He sat with my wife and I and listened to us. We are lifetime collectors of books and avid readers. Every book on our shelves have been read at least once. When we sat down together he asked about our personalities, what we loved about books, our personal taste. A few weeks later he came up with a draft design. We worked back and forth for a few more weeks adjusting lines and adding more curves until we have the library you see pictured in the review. 4- Paul Rene worked hard to install the library. The team they used to install everything were courteous, and incredibly professional. After a month, I asked them to come back to look at a part of the ladder slide system and they were here adjusting it in no time. I can say this honestly- Paul is an artist without peer. My photos barely capture what he designed., and what I have the joy of living with. His partner Rene is a technical master at construction. Bringing the vision to a function that is delicate and sturdy enough to hold thousands of well loved books. Please feel free to message me if you have any questions regarding Paul Rene. read more

I hired Paul to do design and build a custom office furniture set up as we've got an odd sized room to serve as our office. I needed something that was very functional given the limited space but would also help make it very aesthetically pleasing given the amount of time I spend in my office. Paul's got a great eye for design both for use of space and materials and his process made it easy to get the most from his creative capability while capturing the ideas I had. We're so pleased with the office build-out that we decided to do two more pieces of work with Paul right away. Highly recommend if you're in the market for beautiful and functional furniture. read more

We Experienced the Paul Rene Modern Furniture and Cabinetry Excellence! www.Paulrenfurniture.com "idem anima rum" same souls (Latin) A long story of a long battle only to discover a kindred spirit and a soul sharing. We have high praise and a lot of emotion for designing, building, and installing a Custom Home Media Wall. We came to Paul Rene out of frustration and bile-wrenching anger. We had a year-long mess trying to get a custom home entertainment center designed, built, and installed by one of Phoenix's most reputable furniture builders.

After our legal victory over the prominent custom furniture manufacturer, Frustrated and not feeling so victorious, we began our search for a replacement custom furniture manufacturer. How wrong we were to think of fulfilling our desire with a replacement of a failed want. I thought or sheepishly believed we wanted a home entertainment wall. What we wanted was an expression of our souls embodied in pieces of furniture. The prominent custom furniture manufacturer did not understand this nor even attempted to understand us nor take the time to listen to us. Paul delivered beyond our wildest expectations. It's all about The Process. Paul Rene is not a Brick and Mortar place. At two in the wee morning, my wife, Michele, determined that we would not endure another year of my high-end electronics spread out in the family room resting on boxes and a card table, continued with her marathon web searches. Michele did not like that college student bachelor look and vibe that had occupied the family room for the last five years. She struck Gold. She found the PaulReneFurniture.com website.

A great place for custom furniture with artistic flair. We could not be any more pleased with the artistic design and craftsmanship.

Paul Rene was the best choice for our floor-to-ceiling book shelf. We had gotten a quote from a previous business and it was the basic shelves and cabinetry that one could find anywhere. For practically the same price, we received a true work of art: a one-of-a-kind, custom piece that we helped create. Paul not only took in our own thoughts on the project, but kept the design of our home and styles in mind. The book shelves (complete with ladder) is a dream come true! Definitely worth more than 5 stars! read more
