Case Study: J15 Furniture

Our Brief: Centralised manufacturing, finishing, assembly and shipping.

Junction Fifteen produces award-winning, characterful contemporary furniture using high-quality sustainable materials for both domestic and contract markets. When they sought a range expansion, collaborator Lord Design, a prior finishes client, naturally approached us. We suggested a strategic manufacturing switch: centralizing manufacturing, painting, assembly, and shipping with us. This eliminated their need to manage multiple suppliers and in-house logistics, simplifying their supply chain and allowing them to focus on product innovation.

Design

We supported the development of two new table designs, managing the process from concept and prototyping to final manufacture. A two-month period of intensive trials allowed us to develop production techniques that improved upon the client’s existing processes, ensuring consistent, award-winning quality. Having proven our understanding of their brand, we soon collaborated to introduce new colours and new pieces across their range.

Make

We now provide an end-to-end service for this unique, British-designed product range, including consolidating fabrication, assembly, and sourcing sustainable tabletop materials. This close partnership was invaluable when the client secured a major commission for apartment furniture. Thanks to our integrated approach, we were able to quickly produce the prototypes needed to meet their customer’s extremely tight pre-construction schedule.

Reveal

Partnering with us has accelerated the growth and market share of Junction Fifteen. Our collaborative model allows them to develop new products far more rapidly than before. By cutting lead times in half, we now fulfill most orders within two weeks, and introduce new, finished products within six weeks. The client credits the success to our relationship: “It’s fantastic working with you because you understand the brand and what we need to grow our business. Your support is fantastic.”
