Old World Design

From clean lines to ornate details, we have the expertise and design ability to create the look you desire. For over 15 years, Old World Design has created handmade custom doors, cabinetry and woodworking with pride of workmanship and a commitment to excellence.

For over 15 years, we have been recognized as an Artist in Design and Supply of decorative custom entryway and interior wood doors, kitchens, baths, cabinetry, molding, and ceiling beams. We work nationwide with Architects, Homeowners, Builders and Interior Designers. Truly "one of a kind", we are an established group of custom fabricators that build according to your specifications in our local factory located in downtown Sarasota, Florida. Working in a fashion where wood becomes a blank canvas, our products are finished with a process handed down through generations.

We make the custom cabinetry ordering process for you as simple as it should be. If you are building or remodeling a home simply have your builder, contractor, architect or interior designer forward drawings or plans in a PDF file via email to chris@oldworlddesign.net or mail to: 2250 Aspinwall Street, Sarasota, FL 34237. Once Old World Design has received a copy of your plans we will then begin the bidding and estimating process. If a design has not been selected or provided then Old World Design can help find a style for your home.

If a design has not been selected or provided then Old World Design can help find a style for your home. We then prepare an engineered elevation to assure that the designed will meet or exceed the Florida building code for a "One of a Kind Entryway". The entire process generally takes between 2-3 weeks to complete. This will allow you to view your newly designed door using AutoCad fully detailed so you can understand exactly what your door will look like before it is manufactured. Drawings will be sent to the contractor, builder, or interior designer for final approval.

Restoring woodwork becomes a deeply fulfilling and rewarding process as you see worn pieces with faded panels and crackled finishes come to life revealing wood grain that was hidden, hardware that was tarnished, and a beauty that seemed lost. Quite often, restoration costs less than replacement on quality items. High quality furniture, doors and woodwork may be restored or repaired several times in its history, maintaining a functional and beautiful appearance for generations. Old World Design's purpose is to use superb craftsmanship, to provide the highest quality restoration solutions for those pieces which shouldn't be allowed to be lost to time.
