CUSTOM CABINETS COME ALIVE in the hands of Paul Jeffrey, a furniture designer and owner of Paul Rene Furniture. The company is based in Phoenix, Arizona, but Paul’s influence as a designer and visionary has reached far beyond the state and spoken to Mid Century Modern lovers everywhere.
His understanding of the modernist category informs his work and makes him a leader in the industry. “What I like most about Mid Century Modern design is not the aesthetic so much, but rather what the body of work stands for,” he says. “In my opinion, the Mid Century Modern aesthetic expresses the highest purpose of art and design culture.” His words are lived out in his company, which also combines art and design in each project.
