WHERE WORLD-CLASS ARTISTRY MEETS INTERIOR VISION
A Steinway & Sons piano is more than the world’s finest instrument—it is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and a foundational element of home design. Through the Steinway Bespoke program at Schmitt Music, a piano is no longer limited to traditional ebony. It becomes a tailored expression of your client's unique style and your architectural vision.
DESIGNING FOR THE HOME BUILD
Integrating a grand piano into a new build or a major renovation requires early-stage collaboration. Schmitt Music provides the technical expertise to support your design process:
- SPATIAL PLANNING: We provide exact dimensions and templates for floor plan integration, ensuring optimal acoustics and traffic flow.
- ENVIRONMENTAL CONSIDERATIONS: Advice on placement regarding HVAC, floor heating, and sunlight exposure to protect the integrity of the bespoke finish.
- A FOCAL POINT WITH PURPOSE: A bespoke piano isn’t just furniture; it’s an heirloom-quality investment that serves as the "heart" of a home’s Great Room or Salon.
LIMITLESS CUSTOMIZATION
The Bespoke program allows designers to move beyond the "off-the-shelf" and into the realm of pure creativity.
-
INFINITE COLOR PALETTES
We can match any RAL or Pantone color. Whether you’re looking to complement a specific fabric swatch, a piece of fine art, or a bold accent wall, the finish is applied with the same precision as the piano’s acoustic engineering.
-
METAL & HARDWARE FINISHES
Customize every metallic element. Options include polished chrome, brushed nickel, black silver, or traditional gold brass to align with the home’s hardware and lighting fixtures.
-
SHEEN & TEXTURE
Select from a mirror-like high-gloss finish, a sophisticated satin, or an understated matte to manage light reflection within the space.
-
THE INNER CORE
Even the cast-iron plate and internal felts can be color-coordinated, ensuring the piano looks as stunning with the lid open as it does when closed.
