I had been searching high and low on numerous sites for a TV/media console deep enough for audio equipment and wiring. So many media consoles are poorly designed for that purpose! I bought and just received a preowned Standout Designs Haven Media Console. This console is so beautifully designed and crafted. It's easily deep enough for equipment, has venting wherever it's needed, has plenty of storage and room for components or a center channel in an open shelf, and wiring is easily accessible from the rear via removable back panels held in place with clips (no tools needed). Even better, there are 6 hidden wheels that make it easy to pull the console from the wall if wiring changes are needed. The only improvement would be if the wheels could be used to roll the unit side-to-side as well as front-to-back. What a great piece of furniture! I'm really pleased and I know that B&A Woodworks will continue the tradition.

I contacted Brian for a Majestic in black ash, with a 76" custom width to precisely fit my center channel speaker, additional cord grommets, a custom drawer, and with built-in cooling. He accommodated everything and was a joy to work with. Everything is outstanding: the wood quality, the finish, the doors, the sturdiness, and most importantly the eye appeal. The removable back panels are clever and user-friendly. The floor casters are sturdy and smooth, so the console easily slides out for access to wiring and dusting.

Five years ago, we purchased a large media console and matching custom-built coffee table from Standout Designs (with whom Brian was employed). We have been very pleased with those items and were sorry to learn of the business closing. When I received word that Brian and Amiee were establishing their own woodworking shop it was an omen.

I had been looking high and low for something decent to hold my stereo equipment and albums; most everything I ran across was imported junk or ridiculously expensive. I wanted something worthy of this life-long hobby. After just one or two exchanges of emails and sketches, Brian did a mock-up of what I had in mind and he nailed it! I decided to go with walnut and it proved to be an excellent choice. Brian told me to expect a lead time of 8-10 weeks, but he completed it slightly sooner.

I took delivery of the unit today and was like a kid at Christmas! Straight off the bat, the freight driver and I were impressed with the solid, professional crating that protected the unit. I grabbed a Phillips screwdriver and began to uncrate the cabinet. Brian's professionalism and skill are apparent in the time and care he spent protecting his work. And the cabinet itself? Just what I envisioned -- functional and a thing of beauty. This was a particularly good batch of walnut and its graining is remarkable. I'm taking the liberty of including two pictures Brian took before shipping it.

My bottom line? I couldn't be happier with this unit and my dealings with B&A Woodworks. I highly recommend them to anyone considering a similar purchase.

B&A is incredible from the details in the cabinet to the finish work, I am impressed with quality and value. I would highly recommend anything from this craftsman!

Worked with Brian to build custom audio cabinetry. Communication was excellent and the workmanship is fantastic. I couldn’t recommend any more positively.

Although I have not ordered from Brian directly, he was part of the build when I did order my custom media console from Standout Designs. I could not have been happier with the quality of build that Brian was able to do on my console. I left them a positive review when they built it, and upon finding out that Brian had ventured out on his own, decided it would be proper to give him his credit and help him in his new venture. I am excited that someone has picked up where Standout Designs left off. After going to custom, hand made furniture, there is no going back!

I have a custom-built black/walnut video cabinet that was built by Standout Designs. Brian performed the magic that I desired for my dream cabinet. I am a bit of a perfectionist, but my cabinet met every bit of perfection. You cannot find a better piece of furniture no matter how much you might spend. Quality and Perfection!

I just learned that Brian and Amiee Adams have launched a new custom woodworking business, to include product lines previously crafted by Standout Designs (closed in 2020, due to pandemic). I have enjoyed owning a Standout Designs entertainment center since 2014. When I learned that Brian was formerly a lead craftsman at Standout Designs, I knew that B & A Woodworks would be making high-quality furniture. When I next need any type of custom wood furniture, B & A Woodworks will be the first place I look. I will be following B & A Woodworks' website to see what new stock and custom creations are being crafted in their shop.

First class work!! I searched high and low for a classy media center. Brian's work is far and above what I have seen. You cannot go wrong here if heirloom quality cabinets are what you are searching for!

I have worked with Brian on several projects. Besides my Architectural projects he has built cabinets for three of my personal homes over many years All turned out beyond expectations. He is a very skilled craftsman. He is easy to work with and completes work on time and within budget. I have recommended him to many people and all that have used his craftsmanship and experience have all been very pleased with his work. You could not make a better choice for millwork.

B&A does really fine work. I’ve had him make me a few special pieces of furniture to fit our home. The quality and craftsmanship is excellent!

We asked B&A Woodworks to make a custom vanity for us. Brian and Amiee took the time to look at the space, the design we wanted and worked with us to make sure the vanity was exactly what we wanted. The vanity is absolutely perfect even better than we imagined. I highly recommend B&A woodworks, great experience, outstanding people, building heirloom quality furniture!
