Custom Game Table
Back to basics! This custom table was realized in collaboration with one of our clients.
The asymmetrical design adds intrigue.
It is our solution to the need for a game table in a small space. You can store your games and sit comfortably while playing.
Work with our design team and let us help realize your custom project!
The combination of wood and metal with a matte black finish adds strength to this design.

20,000 Leagues Above Average
"The human mind delights in grand conceptions of supernatural beings."
- Jules Verne, Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea (1870)
The Team at The Good Mod recently completed a custom and supernatural 16’ x 8’ boardroom table with a nautical theme for the AirBnB Headquarters Offices in San Francisco. The table fits into the largest of their concept conference rooms, masterfully designed by the Airbnb Environments Team, to fit the fantastical theme based on Jules Verne’s novel Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea. This was yet another wonderful collaboration with the amazing team at Airbnb.
Designed, engineered and constructed within a never-ever-heard-of turnaround time of 14 days, this largest of all meeting room tables is a handmade wonder of nature. The walnut-encased tabletop upholstered in brown leather elegantly interfaces with the circular brass inlays, referencing cartographic tables and ancient navigational tools—all while helping you connect and charge your very contemporary electronics right at your meeting table, via outlet, USB, Com port outlets that integrate with the entire conference room. The curvilinear concave rolled steel legs (700 pounds!) connect with a solid walnut mast, contributing to the look of a regal nautical vessel. With a highly cantilevered top, you feel the ship sailing in.

"From the very beginning, it was such a treat to collaborate with you. After presenting our ideas and inspiration—which you all were so receptive to—you were so great in helping us identify the needs for the project. Together we were able to successfully problem solve and come up with a final design that created the perfect pieces for the space. Thank you for everything—We love TGM!"

With new black powder coated legs, freshly restored backrests with brand new walnut veneer and new Maharam wool upholstery for the seat, these 18 stacking chairs add just the right amount of elegance and comfort to large conferences and expeditions.

TGM in Portland OR is on the Move and Delivering Worldwide
Since the inception of The Good Mod by Spencer Scott Staley, we have experienced a high demand for both our amazing restoration services, as well as our newly developed product line.
Our restoration expert truly gives your Vintage Piece a New Life. This vintage design was passed down in our Client's family, was injected with precision and patience. By offering a sensitive touch on a new veneer top and full restoration on the frame, you would think this table was brand new.
The Ping Pong table has grown waves since the initial design, and is now being requested all over the World. With shipments going to Italy, New York, Nantucket and beyond TGM is making it's way to a Global Brand based right here in Downtown Portland OR!
Our latest Ping Pong custom table destined to a private home in Nantucket, our team worked remotely with the designer to create a White Oak Inlay rather then Metal, and a customized powder coat finish on the legs. The top is Black Walnut, creating a delicate contrast on this Solid Wood Top.
