The talent of three brothers goes into each piece of furniture produced at Great Southwest Furniture Design in Albuquerque. There's Julian Reyes, who designs and painstakingly carves his New Mexican-style tables, chairs beds and media cabinets for walk-in and custom clients. There's Humberto, who takes care of the business end of the company at Candelaria NE. And there's Gabriel, who manages the wood shop. Together the brothers have been in business for seven years, first in Tijeras as Route 66 Design and now in the heights as great southwest for the past year. Twelve years ago, the three emigrated to Albuquerque from Torreon, Mexico, to join relatives who lived here. A glance through their Great Southwest showroom reveals elaborately carved sugar pine furniture in classic New Mexican style. Massive media centers with painted accents sit next to towering canopy beds and low broad tables. Styles come painted in red, green or antiqued paint accents or finished in honey colored stain. The detailed carving is perhaps the most eye-catching feature of Julian Reyes' work. It can take him as long as a day to carve a single leg for a table. His tools are pretty basic---a table saw, joiner, shapers and sanders. He says he taught himself the trade and the New Mexican style years ago. Customers can either come to Great Southwest and buy furniture off the floor or order it specially made, said Reyes, who does the consulting with the customers. They can order more carving, less carving, bigger or smaller, painted or not, he said.
