What We Do

Bespoke CAD design services

Precision SolidWorks drawings for makers, designers and manufacturers — cabinetry, joinery, soft furniture, product and architectural components.

Get Your Project Quoted

Five disciplines, one studio — every drawing precise, buildable, on time.

DesignAs CAD is a studio-based SolidWorks design studio producing precision technical drawings for the bespoke furniture, joinery, and architectural industries. We work directly with cabinet makers, joiners, furniture manufacturers, interior designers, architects, and product developers — translating concepts and briefs into manufacturing-ready CAD files that are accurate, buildable, and delivered on time.

Why DesignAs CAD

£

Transparent Pricing

Every project is quoted upfront, with the pricing model matched to the work — a set project fee for clearly defined work, or time-based and staged pricing for larger or evolving projects. You'll know exactly how you're being charged before we begin. No surprises.

48

48-Hour Response

We respond to every enquiry within 48 hours of brief sign-off. Rush jobs considered — ask us when you get in touch.

Accuracy Guaranteed

Our accuracy guarantee: if a drawing doesn't match the agreed design intent, we correct it at no cost, as a priority. All requested changes — refinements, updates, or new directions — are quoted before work begins, so you always know the cost upfront.

How It Works

01

Brief

Send us your brief — sketches, dimensions, reference images, or just a description. The more detail the better, but we're experienced at working from minimal information too.

02

Quote

We review your brief and respond within 48 hours with a tailored quote — project-fee or time-based depending on the project's scope and complexity — and a confirmed turnaround time. No obligation, no surprises.

03

Draw

Once you approve the quote, we get to work. Our SolidWorks designers produce precision technical drawings built to your exact specification.

04

Review

You receive the first draft for review. If anything deviates from the agreed brief, we correct it at no cost, as a priority — and any further changes you request are quoted before work begins. Still developing the design? We offer Design Development — iterative concept and form exploration on a time basis, before the sign-off set is produced.

05

Deliver

Final files delivered in your required format — SolidWorks, AutoCAD-ready DWG and DXF, PDF, or STEP. Ready to go straight to the workshop or manufacturer.
