The choice to work with Purposeful Design is a choice to work with your own custom manufacturer! 

From wood species to stain, finish, dimensions, functionality, base/leg type and more, each piece is designed to your requirements with your priorities in mind.  Whether it’s a wow one-of-a-kind piece or 500 lunchroom tables for an entire school district, we produce to reflect your priorities and the users’ needs. And we understand the unique requirements for durability and functionality of your environment whether its business and industry, k-12 schools, college/university, healthcare or restaurants and hospitality.  

Custom production of solid wood furniture with the ability to scale

Custom production of solid wood furniture with the ability to scale is a rare combination in the world of furniture building! We have the capability to produce on a large scale whether that is number of pieces( such as 800 tables) or a large single piece ( such as a table larger than 60 x 144 inches). While we love Indiana hardwoods such as white oak, maple and ash, we work with any wood species available in the U.S. This provides our customers with an unprecedented variety to achieve their design goals.

Every project is treated with a small custom shop mentality

…whether it’s one piece or 500! This means high attention to detail and many hands touching each piece! We like a lot of hands because of our mission. Many hands for you, our customers, means great care and the highest quality.  These capabilities are supported by our technology and our beautiful raw materials. 

A unique level of service

…from start to finish! You have the ideas and dreams of what it could be,  we work collaboratively with the key stakeholders in the design process to translate ideas, sketches and dreams into reality.  We elevate delivery and install into a time of celebration of the choice for social good that Purposeful Design furniture represents! And that  “high touch” service doesn’t stop on the day of delivery.

“Nearly every visitor to the office comments on how much they love our furniture! The lives you’re impacting in Jesus’ name is
awesome, and I’m happy to be able to participate in a small way.”

– Brett D. Bean, President and CEO, F E Moran

LIFE TRANSFORMATION

LIFE TRANSFORMATION

We help re-build the lives of men broken by addiction or homelessness, equip them with valuable work skills and create jobs. The men we serve are transformed into skilled, passionate artisans who make beautiful furniture. Each day, they are learning how to treat their fellow craftsmen with love and grace. At home, they are growing stronger as husbands and fathers, and learning to look beyond themselves to consider the needs of others as more important than their own.
