For centuries, the debate over furniture as art has persisted. Visionaries like Charles and Ray Eames and Le Corbusier proved that craftsmanship and design could elevate functional objects into museum-worthy pieces. Today, The House of Pontovi continues this legacy, creating bespoke furniture that adorns iconic properties like San Francisco’s Transamerica Building and celebrity homes. CEO Stephen Taglianetti asserts, “Our goal is to make furniture that transforms a room and becomes part of how a space is experienced.”
Client Collaboration
A significant factor in Pontovi's success is its focus on collaboration with clients. Unlike many furniture designers who deliver a final product with little input from the buyer, Pontovi involves clients from the very beginning of the design process. Clients are encouraged to provide feedback at each stage, from material selection to the final touches.
To enhance this collaboration, Pontovi uses technology to keep clients updated on the progress of their projects. Clients can track every stage of their furniture’s creation through an online portal, from initial sketches to the final assembly. This transparency has helped to build trust and strong, long-term relationships with many clients. "Transparency and communication are at the core of what we do," says Taglianetti. "We give our clients the tools to be involved in every step of the process. By the time the piece is delivered, they feel satisfied and proud of what we’ve created together."
Blending Tradition and Innovation

The House of Pontovi combines traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology like CAD software, enabling precise designs and adjustments before production. This blend of artisanal skill and digital precision sets them apart in the custom furniture market.
Their innovation extends to materials, blending traditional woods with modern composites to create timeless or bold, contemporary designs. CEO Stephen Taglianetti states, "The blend of new technology and traditional craftsmanship enables us to take on a wide range of projects, from a single chair to an entire hotel lobby."
Expanding into New Markets

Building on its success in cities like Los Angeles and Las Vegas, Pontovi is expanding into Miami, Palm Springs, Dubai, and London. Despite the challenges of navigating diverse cultural aesthetics and sourcing materials, the company remains steadfast in its commitment to quality and personalization.
In response to rising environmental concerns, Pontovi has incorporated sustainability into its operations, using reclaimed wood and non-toxic finishes. At the same time, technological innovations, such as enhanced client portals, streamline the design process. CEO Stephen Taglianetti affirms, “We’ll never compromise our craftsmanship or client relationships as we grow.” Through its harmonious blend of artistry, collaboration, and sustainability, The House of Pontovi continues to redefine furniture as an enduring art form.
