Portfolio — crafted kitchens across the United Kingdom
Our portfolio presents a curated selection of completed kitchens that demonstrate the breadth of our craft. Projects include careful restorations within period townhouses, compact made-to-measure solutions for cottages and contemporary commissions that marry timber veneers with engineered stone. Each case emphasises practical planning, refined proportion and joinery choices made to endure. Images and notes here focus on the design intent, materials used and specific joinery or storage solutions that responded to each brief. We document how bespoke details — in-frame doors, dovetailed drawers, concealed storage and integrated appliances — contribute to a cohesive whole. Use these examples to understand our approach to scale, finish and how craft-led decisions improve daily use and longevity of the kitchen.
Case studies and highlights
Each case study below outlines the brief, key decisions and the craftsmanship that made the outcome successful. We include high-quality photography showing overall composition and close-ups of joinery, handles, worktops and storage solutions. Where a project required special co-ordination — for example, listed-building consent or complex site deliveries — we describe logistical steps taken to protect the fabric of the building and ensure a smooth installation. These projects reflect our skill in combining traditional detail with modern performance expectations, and how we tailor materials and workflows to meet a client's aesthetic and practical requirements.

Read summaryMaterials, detailing and finishes
We specify materials for tactile quality and longevity. Hardwood frames, selected veneers and durable worktops are chosen for their visual warmth and service life. Finishes are applied in our workshop to ensure consistent results and reduce on-site curing time. Hardware is selected for performance and discreet behaviour: soft-close runners, robust hinges and engineered drawer systems are integrated where appropriate. Special detailing such as in-frame stiles, tapered island overhangs and bespoke pantries are resolved in the design stage and prototyped where necessary to confirm scale and operation. For every project we prepare sample boards and full-size mock-ups of critical details so clients can assess finish and feel before production begins. This attention minimises surprises and ensures the kitchen performs as intended over many years.
