Our latest alcove cabinet set, all ready for Christmas.

Sprayed to colour match Valspar 'Hyde Park', to match in with the wall, and highlight the feature fire place... what an absolutely lovely space to relax in.

Made for a lovely couple in Chester, this is the last fitting job of 2024 for us.

We hung the tv on the wall for this one, giving flexibility when people pop round. Features of the cabinet include a c**k bead frame, classic shaker doors with matching beading detail, a bevel edge worktop and matching base.

The cabinet was the easy bit on this one, the 7 floating shelves took a bit of time to get right as the walls were slightly off due to the age of the house, that's OK though, we like to take our time to get it right 😃

Merry Christmas everyone, and we'll see you in the new year for our next fit 🎅

Love this one!.. a lovely single alcove cabinet, adding charm and character to this already stunning living room.

Designed, made, sprayed and fitted by us. Here are some details of what we used:

• Lighting is LED CCT, which we integrated into the shelving. Lighting can be adjusted for brightness and warmth. Supplied by our favourite lighting supplier .co.uk pupp
• Spray finished in 'Inchyra Blue'. This is a great darky blue / grey colour, which is reminiscent of naturally dramatic Scottish skies. This colour is great for a dark and intimate feel.
• Hinges, as always, are from which are the best hinges for cabinets. They come lifetime guarantee, and are both solid and smooth to use, with a soft close that beats all competition.
• Handles are a half moon style called 'Barrington Eclipse' from
• Panels are from Liam is so helpful, great product knowledge and sorts us out with high quality boards every time!

So alcove cabinets, we absolutely love doing them. If you have a project in mind, we'd love for you to give us a call to discuss how we can help you. Sarah's got loads of mood boards to share to really get inspiration flowing. Have a look at our newly refreshed website too for even more inspiration.

A floating media unit, with oak slatted backs and integrated lighting. Splashes of Farrow and Ball 'Cromarty' supply muted softness which brings the outside in.

With such a large wall, we designed this media unit to be a feature piece. Staying away from a 'square' design, we wanted it to have the feel of it 'reaching' over into the space, thus the overhanging staggered top shelf, the set back slatted back, and the floating base.

It's always exciting when the customer is so open to different designs, we think this hit the mark ❤️

For those who like audio and visual descriptions, it's a 75" smart tv, with sound integration throughout the room.

We have some real lovely media units coming up that we can't wait to share with you all. If you would like a media unit, we'd love to hear from you.

Just a little green. This is our latest bookcase, made for a customer in our home city of Chester.

The colour is 'Secluded Wood' by Behr, which is an American brand of paint. The customer brought the swatch back from America, which we colour matched, and sprayed onto the finished bookcase. The colour is described as sophisticated, bold and balanced, a deep green for creating timeless spaces. We think this description fits the bill perfectly.

We designed this in a classic style, emphasising thick worktops and wide drawers. The brushed satin brass long handles finishing the look.

A few more pictures of our latest wardrobe / coffee station project, designed and made for a customer on the Wirral.

The doors were made by covering the internal panels with Tektura fabric wallpaper, which was then surrounded by a solid brass inlay. The handles were by Hendel & Hendel, called a 'Battersea pull handle' in a dark brushed brass effect, adding a final touch of luxury.

Boards were by finsa, with the paint supplied by symphonycoatings

We used Rubio Monocoat on all the internals, as well as the coffee station back panels. This was custom mixed to complement the room tone.

Definitely some wardrobe and bedroom inspiration to be had on this project ♥️
