Custom Design That Reflects Your Unique Needs

At Parkey OrganBuilders, we believe that you deserve the highest degree of skill and professionalism in every aspect of your pipe organ project, beginning with the design.

Our approach to design is based upon the belief that every organ comes with its own unique set of needs and requirements that calls for both technical expertise and unlimited imagination in order to create an instrument that inspires and realizes the full potential of your musical program.

To ensure that you are getting the perfect organ down to the smallest detail, we consider a host of factors during the design phase, including:

  • Room size & acoustics
  • Location of the instrument
  • Specific tonal requirements
  • Musical goals of the church/institution
  • What parts of the organ will be visible to the congregation/audience
  • Wood casework/facades to complement the present architecture
  • Thoughtful construction for easy maintenance accessibility
  • Future needs

Parkey OrganBuilders also offers in-house CADD design (Computer Aided Design and Drafting). This leading edge technology enables us to construct a 3-D blueprint of your instrument that can be easily adjusted to present various options and accommodate changes prior to the actual construction of your pipe organ. In addition, CADD design helps keep your budget intact and guarantees precision formulas for milled woodwork using computerized CNC routers and master woodworking craftsmen.

From a small, simple pipe organ to a grand masterpiece featuring over 100 ranks, you can rest assured that your project will reflect an extensive knowledge of design, materials and the processes involved in organbuilding.

Church, Marietta.

This new console from our shop and was the first phase of organ restoration work for the church.

Phil makes his recommendations based on a variety of factors — the nature, style and quality of the instrument itself, the needs of the parish or congregation, the needs of the organist, the acoustical integrity of the room, the budget and a reliable sense of what is appropriate. I completely trust his judgement in such matters.
