Casegoods finish matched to the bed’s timber sample.
The client had a reference image and a room with awkward dimensions: the bed had to fit a specific wall width while keeping the proportions of the headboard in the photo. Matching nightstands and a bench were to follow the same timber and fabric.
Every Source Foshan project follows the same managed flow: brief, compared shortlist, one confirmed quote, orders placed with each supplier, production tracked with weekly photo updates, inspection against the confirmed specification, then consolidation into one shipment. The overview below shows how that flow applied to this scope. Client names, addresses and invoices are confidential; we share further detail, including the inspection report format, on request.
The reference became a dimensioned shop drawing, checked against the room plan and approved by the client. A bedroom factory produced the frame, which we inspected before the headboard was upholstered, and the same workshop made the casegoods so the timber stain matched. Fabric was confirmed from a physical swatch rather than a screen.
| Item | Specification | Check |
|---|---|---|
| Upholstered bed | Custom width, headboard height from reference, hardwood frame | Frame inspected before upholstery |
| Nightstands (pair) | Matching timber stain, soft-close drawers | Finish compared with bed sample |
| Bench | Same fabric as headboard, matching legs | Fabric batch matched |

Quality is built in through seven checkpoints rather than inspected once at the end: material selection, incoming inspection, production monitoring, assembly inspection, final quality check, packaging verification and shipment approval. Because the bed was custom, the first inspection happened at frame stage, before upholstery hid the structure. Dimensions, slat support and headboard fixing were signed off against the drawing.
- Dimensions measured and recorded against the confirmed drawings or model specifications
- Frames, joinery and hardware checked for stability, alignment and function
- Upholstery seams, stitching, foam feel and fabric batches compared with approved samples
- Finish colour and sheen checked under neutral light against the signed-off sample
- Export packing verified: foam and corner protection, moisture barriers, crating where needed, bilingual room-by-room labels
