FOR TIGHT HANDIWORK AT HALF THE PRICE

this 25-year-old (2016 “Best of New York”) upholstere­r is a “cult figure among interior designers,” we wrote, for its low prices—the “high volume that owner Hector Diaz bangs out, from firming up old pillows to grafting entire six-piece sectionals, allows him to charge around $475 for a job that might cost $800 elsewhere—and the attention is to detail. When Noah Turkus of Weiss Turkus Projects needs a set of velvet bucket chairs reswathed in lambswool, he swears by Diaz’s tight handiwork and good prices.” Recent work includes a pair of Eero Saarinen armchairs (done in Knoll bouclé fabric), a slipcover for a white Ligne Roset Togo love seat, and some 1950s lounge chairs in Maharam pebble wool.
