At Chapter, we believe the objects we surround ourselves with tell our story. They help define who we are, shaping how we live, adapt, and grow over time. We aim to create furniture that becomes part of a person’s life, pieces that carry meaning and quietly reflect the stories lived around them.

Chapter is a Chicago based design studio founded in 2012 by Kenny Nelson. With a background in architecture, furniture design, and product development, Kenny brings a thoughtful and disciplined approach to every project. All Chapter pieces are made in the United States with a focus on quality, longevity, and craftsmanship.

We are a custom furniture design studio that partners closely with our clients through the full process of design, development, and manufacturing. Collaboration is central to our work, allowing each piece to be shaped with intention, care, and purpose.
