Millwork & Custom Furniture
Through close collaboration with several of the major Ottawa millwork companies and through experience of complex millwork projects such as the design development and project management of the millwork package for the Ottawa Convention Centre, Tim Davis Design Inc has developed a specialism in millwork design. Claude Lavoie, former owner of Gaston Lavoie Cabinet Shop Ltée, who is widely regarded as one of Ottawa’s most knowledgeable millwork experts, is a senior consultant to the practice. In addition to designing millwork for our own interior schemes, we are pleased to assist other design practices and millwork shops with millwork design and also to provide expert witness advice in the case of disputes arising involving millwork
