The Grand Hotel has long been a beacon of luxury and tradition, and we are honored to have contributed to its next chapter.
This collaboration embodies the perfect fusion of history, innovation, and artisanal craftsmanship.

Bespoke Craftmanship for a Historic Landmark
A Vision by Vern Yip, Brought to Life
We are proud to have crafted over 70 bespoke pieces of Claize furniture in 2022 for the refresh of the Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island, Michigan—a landmark of timeless elegance and historic charm.
Renowned for his sophisticated and thoughtful approach, Vern Yip reimagined the Esther Williams Pool House, bringing a fresh, yet classic touch to this iconic space. Our custom Aronson Woodworks pieces played a vital role in this stunning refresh.
Seamless Integration of Past and Present
From the checkout desk to the dining tables lining the grand hall, each piece was meticulously crafted to blend seamlessly with the hotel’s storied architecture while providing modern functionality and durability.
