Q&A

with jack sissoyev
president of royal custom designs

How are you responding to industry
trends?

There are so many incredibly talented people we
work with. It is important to connect with the ones
who will share the relevant information on what
is important to them and the project. When we
dive into a project from our client's perspective, the
whole process improves. If we are very lucky, we
will get challenged and learn something good along
the way.

What's one thing people would be
interested in learning about your
company?

We find the Made in America story is always a great
conversation.
Our clients find it refreshing to hear about good
American craftsmanship. It seems no matter how
much we say it, many clients are surprised to hear
that quality furniture factories still exists, and even
thrive, in the USA.

How would you describe your business in
one sentence?

Royal Custom Designs exists to bring hospitality
designs to life through the use of craftsmen, know
how, and an unwavering commitment to our clients.

What differentiates your company from its
competitors?
Royal Custom Designs received the inaugural
International Society of Hospitality Purchasers
Vendor Quality Award. I would say that one of the

014

November 2018 hospitalitydesign.com

key reasons we were so honored is because we
have assembled a talented team of world class craft
persons here in our California factory. Our clients
can reach the decision makers who actually build
their products any time. This USA footprint is
rather unique in the furniture industry, where a vast
majority of the products are made outside the USA.

Is there a recent hospitality (or other)
project where we can see your products?
How were they used?

Of course - We have been fortunate to work on
some of the finest hotels and resorts in North
America. In the last 90 months, we have completed
over 196 jobs for the Four Seasons hotels. Los
Angeles, Atlanta, Miami, Seattle, Vail, and my
favorite in Punta Mita, Costa Rica. And no, I didn't
go on a week's long QA visit after the project was
complete!

Outside the industry, where do you look
for inspiration for new collections?

I have always been inspired by the unique - both
animate and inanimate objects. Nothing is more
unique than people. I am in total awe of some of the
talented individuals we work with. How is it that
drawings and small color boards turn into some of
the most amazing spaces on the planet? Unique
talent for sure. I think that other inspirations come
from travel. It is essential to be exposed to a wide
variety processes, thoughts, and different ways of
life to see something in a different, creative way.
