About Us

Calise Design Studios was born as a creative outlet aside from our day to day work in hopes to, one day, make it our focus. That day has arrived. Our name is plural since our creative outlets are far beyond one and it has been our goal to create a different studio that describes what we do under one name. Our journey started with the Furniture Studio. Since then we have created several other smaller studios such as Soap Making and Accessories, Logo Design for small businesses, and Stationery Studio. Nevertheless, our main focus continues to be the Furniture Studio, Architectural design and Drafting Studio and Digital Art Studio.
