Alcoves, bedrooms and bays

Fitted furniture

The recesses either side of a chimney breast, a bedroom wall that needs full-height wardrobes, a bay that wants a seat. We draw each piece around what's already in the room, so it fits the skirting, the sloping floor and the ceiling you actually have.

Alcoves, wardrobes and seats

  • Alcove cupboards and shelves

    Low cupboards with shelves above, drawn around the skirting, picture rail and chimney breast.

  • Fitted wardrobes

    Full-height wardrobes for bedrooms and eaves, with rails, shelves and drawers planned around what you keep.

  • Window seats

    A seat built into a bay or under a window, with drawers or a lift-up lid for storage.

  • Bookcases and shelving

    A whole wall of shelves, or shelving up a stairwell, with the spacing set for what goes on it.

Worth knowing

  • Sockets, switches and radiators

    We measure them on the visit and draw the cupboards around them, keeping access to meters and pipework.

  • Walls that aren't straight

    The edges against the wall are scribed on the day, so there are no gaps to fill or cover with trim.

  • Painted or natural

    We'll talk through painted and natural timber finishes when we measure. The quote says which finish is included.

Questions

Can you work around a radiator or a gas fire?
Yes. We measure clearances on the visit and draw them into the design, so you can see how it sits before anything is made.
Do you paint it?
