The Company
Founded in 1992 by Marc and Nancy Douglass in their home in Dunwoody, Georgia, Douglass Workroom was built on a simple belief: that true craftsmanship, carried out with care and integrity, never goes out of style. What began as a small operation has grown into a nationally respected workroom serving top interior designers with custom drapery, furniture, upholstery, and softgoods of the highest caliber.
Now a multigenerational business, Douglass Workroom continues to uphold its founding values—precision, collaboration, and a deep respect for the design process. Our team includes over 35 highly skilled artisans, from master upholsterers and seamstresses to carpenters and finishers. Together, we bring decades of experience and a shared pride in our work to every project that comes through our doors.
Whether we’re building an heirloom-quality sofa from scratch, tailoring drapery for a perfect view, or creating a single pillow to anchor a room, we treat every detail as an opportunity to deliver something exceptional. At Douglass Workroom, we believe the best work isn’t just beautiful- it’s beautifully made.
With over 20 years of experience in custom window treatments, Ceile Dukes leads our drapery division with precision, artistry, and a sharp eye for detail. Alongside Chris Nurre and Chandler Johnston, Ceile and her team manage each project from initial measurements through final installation, ensuring every treatment reflects the craftsmanship our clients expect. Together, they bring technical expertise and creative insight to even the most complex designs.
Senior craftsman Zajid Cruz leads our custom furniture division alongside Megan Merriam, Sam Douglass, and Janie Douglass, bringing a level of technical expertise and artistry that sets the tone across the floor. Together, they guide each piece from frame to finish, drawing on decades of combined experience to ensure every detail is thoughtfully executed. From fully custom builds to complex upholstery, the team produces heirloom-quality furniture that blends timeless technique with thoughtful innovation.
Our production team is the heart of Douglass Workroom—over 40 skilled artisans who take real pride in what they do. From seamstresses and upholsterers to carpenters and finishers, everyone plays a hands-on role in bringing each project to life. We do a lot of complex, custom work, and our team thrives on it—working closely together and holding a high standard in everything that leaves the floor.
