We hired Mark to build a custom console table for our entry way using a piece of quartz left over from our kitchen remodel. Mark responded to my call immediately, came to the house to get a sense of our home, and designed a few options for us. He got our design style right away and we picked a design, making only a few minor adjustments. Mark was receptive to our ideas. He was extremely easy to work with. He kept us updated every step of the way. His furniture are art pieces and we could tell that he worked very hard to make sure everything was perfect. And it was. I absolutely love our console table. It makes quite the statement as people enter our home. I would highly recommend Mark to handle your custom furniture project.

I am very happy with the pieces I purchased from not2big - a console table and a side table. The side table was designed by Mark specifically for my space. He was extremely customer service focused and made sure we were absolutely pleased with the result. The materials are beautiful and his workmanship is outstanding.

Combining the vision of a graphic designer with the hands of a craftsman, Mark Dellplain creates unique furniture pieces that become functional works of art for the home. His inspired pairings of design elements from outside traditional furniture making, such as the use of auto parts and nautical fittings, add an elegant whimsy to his creations.

We knew as soon as we viewed Mark Dellplain’s first collection of furniture that not2big was truly special. His pieces are a unique combination of superlative craftsmanship and inspired design livened with a touch of wit. Something as simple as a chair for Dellplain becomes a riff on the deck seating of the great transatlantic ocean liners (the high back) or a tongue in cheek reference to a love of automobiles (the spring chair). Dellplain’s furniture designs possess an intrinsic elegance that begins with a respect for the material, be it wood, metal or glass and culminates in a finished work of the highest workmanship and artistry.

Mark Dellplain's furniture are both works of art and functional. The modern juxtaposition of warm wood and cooler metal add a distinctive flair for each piece. Looking at each unique piece I find I want to learn more about each piece. On top of the asthetics of each piece, Mark's furniture is comfortable as it is functional. Mark is the quintesential proffesional and his high level of customer service is a joy to work with.

I have known mark for about fifteen years and after working with him on numerous projects, I am continually surprised and impressed by his many talents. Mark is not only a graphic designer but has mechanical and fabrication skills of impeccable quality. The pattern of the wood, form and detail in the not2big furniture is simply elegant. I love the inventive mechanical connections, simple lines and the contrast of chrome and wood. Marks furniture is a work of art made by a true craftsman. Ken Large—Landscape Architect
