We just met George Evageliou, who has a great little company specializing in cabinetry for small apartments. Urban Homecraft is his interiors and woodworking company that serves folks in the NYC area.

We hired George to build custom bookshelves in our apartment and it's the best money we've spent in a long time. We bought an apt from a women who'd had an interior designer "do" her living space-- without any bookshelves. We had an entire wall of books in our last apartment, and needed to find a way to fit bookshelves into this new one, but had no idea how to do it because of the design and existing furniture the woman had left behind. George helped us figure out the best place for our bookshelves and had them finished and installed in about 2 weeks. Plus, he built cabinet doors for another piece of built-in furniture, which we needed to keep our toddler's fingers out of the electronics. Sure, we could have gone to Ikea and spend less money, but we would have had bookshelves that didn't fit into our space and would have instead been down a long, dark hallway. Instead, we have 13' shelves from the ceiling down to our couch, of cherry, with inset lights underneath. I can't say enough good things about working with George-- his craftsmanship, personality, and work ethic. I very highly recommend him and his work. DBarrachin on Jul 29, 2007
