About Us
Choobe Sabz Workshop was founded in Isfahan in the autumn of 1981. Until the early 1990s, its work centered on residential and bank-branch decor — including fitting out branches of Bank Saderat, Bank Keshavarzi, Bank Refah, and Bank Sepah across Isfahan province. Winning the 1996 competition to restore the parliamentary chairs of the old National Assembly — without blueprints or technical documentation, relying only on old newspaper photographs — opened a new chapter focused on the restoration of national heritage buildings.
Leads Choobe Sabz Workshop alongside a management team covering commercial, design, and public relations — with a focus on national projects, cultural heritage, and bespoke construction.

White parquet makes a room feel brighter and larger, but it also reveals dirt and scratches faster than darker tones. Know this trade-off before you choose it.

Vacuum and membrane are two names you'll hear in kitchen cabinet shops, and they usually describe nearly the same manufacturing process. Here's what to actually ask about before you order.

Repainting an old MDF cabinet can cheaply buy your kitchen a few more years, or it can be money wasted. Here's where that line actually falls.

Louvered wood shutters block direct midday sun while still letting in light and air — a middle ground between heavy curtains and a bare window, especially for sun-facing facades.

A folding wood door closes up like an accordion and opens almost the full width of an opening; for laundry closets, utility rooms, and tight wardrobes, it can be more practical than a hinged or sliding door.

Even a correctly installed wood floor contracts slightly in dry heating season and swells a little in humid season. That's normal wood behavior, not a workmanship defect — but ignoring it leads to cracks and buckling.

Old wooden chairs usually fail at their joints first, not their wood; that difference decides what gets taken apart and what's better left untouched.

Scratches and a dull sheen on parquet don't always mean the floor has to go. In most cases, only the top finish needs sanding and a fresh coat to look new again.

Most kitchen cabinet headaches aren't about wood or color — they're about sequencing. Here are the common measuring and timing mistakes to know before you order.

A kitchen's worktop usually falls into the shadow of ceiling light. An LED strip under the cabinets lights up that exact spot; what matters is placement and color temperature.

A cabinet handle is not a minor detail; its material and shape directly affect daily comfort and how long the cabinet door lasts. We compare three common options.

The bathroom is the most humid room in a home for wood to face. Before ordering a vanity cabinet, know which material and finish actually hold up, and which fail fast.

The installation pattern of wood facade cladding isn't just a style choice; it affects how water behaves, how much upkeep it needs, and even how big the facade looks.

In the market, any wood-look floor gets called "parquet" — but real wood parquet, laminate, and vinyl are three genuinely different products.

A glass wardrobe door can double as a mirror and a light source. Before you order one, learn the difference between safety glass and ordinary glass, and where each type belongs.

Each wood species has its own color, hardness, and price; here's which of walnut, beech, oak, fir, and pine suits which piece of interior decor best.

The final color of thermowood depends on the original wood species and the heat-treatment temperature; from light cream to burnt brown, each shade suits a different use.

Wood species, cut quality, veneer type, and design complexity are the four factors that set the real cost of wood decor, not a simple sticker price.

Many wood facades start warping and rotting two or three years after installation, not because of bad wood, but because of a missing air gap behind the cladding.

The old rule that every piece of wood in a home must match exactly has faded; deliberately combining two or three wood tones is now an accepted design principle, if done right.

When the bottom of a wooden window or door frame rots, a full replacement isn't always necessary. Wood epoxy resin can rebuild and re-harden the rotted part. Here's when it works and when it doesn't.

Unlike a building's facade, a garden fence sits directly under the rain and touches the soil. Wood choice and installation details differ a lot here.

The rail, not the door's color, decides how many years a sliding wardrobe will open and close without trouble. Here's the difference between top-hung and bottom rails, and the signs of a cheap one.

The cabinet door is the hardest piece to build well, and the first to show flaws. A few simple checks reveal real quality before delivery, not after.

A wooden mosque pulpit or mihrab can be a century old, and damp, cracking, and faded color make the work difficult; here's the line between restoration and rebuilding for these delicate carvings.

A wooden barn door glides along a wall-mounted rail instead of swinging open, so it never eats up floor space; here's where it works and where it doesn't.

A wooden conference table and the wood paneling behind it aren't just for looks; they shape the room's acoustics, a client's sense of the company's credibility, and daily durability.

Before ordering a new window, check four signs on the old one first. Repair is often enough and can cost a fraction of a full replacement.

A wooden room divider splits a space without a full wall, letting light pass through. Slat density and height need to be decided before you order one.

Before ordering a wooden bed frame, know three things: which parts need weight-bearing wood, the base height, and the right final finish.

A wooden dining table gets used several times a day; unlike most decor choices, the wrong wood type or size isn't easy to change later.

The same dark wood looks warm and cozy under yellow light and cold and flat under white light; lighting is a decision to make before building, not after.

Wood decor for a cafe or restaurant differs fundamentally from a home: it must host hundreds of guests a day while still feeling warm and inviting.

A wood door facing a courtyard or garden takes direct rain and sun. Without the right construction and finish, it warps far sooner than expected.

The gap above upper kitchen cabinets is where dust and grease settle. Here's when running cabinets to the ceiling actually makes sense, and when it doesn't.

Every wood decor style follows a different logic: light, natural roughness, or symmetry. Before picking a wood species and a colour, you need to pick the style first.

The price per square metre on the box is just one of several real numbers. Subfloor prep, cutting waste, installation method, and the durability of the top layer shape the final cost, not just the sticker price.

A wood staircase railing must be safe and beautiful at once. Know the right wood, safe handrail height, and protective finish before you build.

Herringbone parquet's angled pieces add texture and visual depth to a floor, but it demands a more precise subfloor than standard parquet.

A good built-in wardrobe isn't just attractive — it's sized to match what you actually own. Before you order one, learn these four numbers so no space goes to waste.

Wood whose moisture content doesn't match its final installation environment will eventually warp or crack. The right moisture level for a dry climate isn't the same as European standards.
