Home office in Dullingham, Newmarket.

This client wanted a more permanent home office. They wanted more storage for files and paperwork and a large desk to hold their multi-screen set-up.

Offices are a lot of fun to design and make. They require a lot of thought as someone will use that room five days a week. And the more storage you have, the more organised you can be.

Trying to avoid making the office look like a kitchen, the client opted for a modern-style door.

I made a modern-style door with a thin border. Incorporating this with the cabinetry frames gives a clean, simple look.

I also made a bespoke dovetailed oak file drawer to house legal files.

A lovely client in Ousden, Suffolk, got in touch wanting to update their utility room.

The client wanted to add more storage cabinets and hide the boiler and fuse boards but not hinder access. Floor space for the dog beds was also a priority.

I added a mini boot room and wall cladding to hide pipework and allow access to heating controls. The bench seat also allows shoe storage and access to the heating pipework for future maintenance.

I painted the in-frame cabinetry in Mylands of London Serpentine.
Quartz worktops supplied and fitted by Rock & Co.
Antique pewter handles.
Butler sink.

I've also added some of the 3D renders I had drawn for the initial proposal.

Pictures from a recent installation!

A lovely couple from just outside Cambridge wanted to utilise the space around the fireplace in their bedroom. A great addition to this already beautiful home!

Painted in Mylands Cadogan stone, the client continued the colour onto the walls for a clean look. Oak dovetailed internal drawers, matt black hanging rail, and hinges match the black handles.

I'm so happy to finally share photos of a kitchen I made earlier this year! I am going to post more often.

A lovely couple in Chevely Newmarket took on a massive renovation project, creating their dream home. I had so much fun making this kitchen and working with the client and their friendly builders.

A handmade inframe kitchen and utility room with a beaded shaker door painted in Mylands Bond Street and Hawksmoore. Quartz worktops. Oak dovetailed drawer boxes featuring a breakfast cabinet, angled wine storage and cookbook nook!!

In the second bedroom, the client asked to combine a home office as well as a wardrobe. The same oak handle design was carried out in this piece of furniture. The green colour from Bedroom one was also used on the slatted paneling. πŸ‘Š

Really enjoyed making these pair of alcove cabinets, although lifting them in place was a challenge!

The clients hand-painted them and did a great job! Love the colour and how they’ve turned out.

These tall cabinets were built so the clients could have more storage whilst housing a boiler and utilities.

A few more photos of the home office furniture. The house had some great features which made making this really fun. A couple of details were, replicating the existing oak skirting. Side cupboard access to a printer and other bits and of course scribing into the beams and brickwork πŸ‘ŒπŸ» Thank you to the clients who were fantastic to work for!
