The Joybird Alternative

Joybird has earned a following among homeowners who want more personality in their furniture — bold colors, mid-century forms, and the ability to customize upholstery from a wide palette. For buyers who find mainstream modern furniture too safe, Joybird offers a welcome dose of confidence and individuality.

Can you achieve Joybird's colorful, mid-century look?

Absolutely — with greater range, quality, and room-level cohesion. We source from dozens of brands that specialize in expressive, personality-forward design.

Are there design fees when working with Emerald & Oak on a Joybird project?

Design fees are waived for full-room furnishing projects that meet our minimum order threshold.

How much customization is really available?

Significantly more than any single retailer can offer. Access to hundreds of brands means thousands of fabric, finish, and material options — plus custom sizing, bespoke construction, and exclusive designs.

What is the minimum project size for a Joybird-inspired design?

This service is for clients making a meaningful commitment to a professionally completed space. We are happy to discuss.
