our step by step to creating beautiful built in furniture.
from design to manufacture.
initial consultation
Whether its an email or a phone call, the first step is having a chat about your ideas. Here we’ll go through some lots of information that will set us up for the rest of the project. We’ll discuss your space, requirements, time scale, and budget, as well as brainstorming some initial ideas.
Home Survery & estimation
Once we’ve got all of the information we need, we can arrange a home visit to meet each other and discuss your project in person, as well as taking some measurements of your space. We can then provide an estimate for your project. If you would like to proceed, a 10% deposit would be required on booking.
design
At this stage, we work work on creating a 3D CAD visual for your project, which helps you visualise exactly what your space will look like. Included will be details about the materials chosen, the colour choices, hardware, functionality etc. There’s lots of room for changes during this stage and we’re more than happy to make tweaks and changes at your request.
manufacture
With everything set in place, we get to work crafting your furniture in our Lincoln based workshop. We’ll keep you updated with everything along the way before getting in touch two weeks prior to arrange an installation date.
installation & aftercare
Installation will be carried out over the course of a couple of days, depending on the size of the project. Everything is made in our workshop, so there’s minimal disruption to your home.

Our standard use of LED's comes in the form of a 4mm silicone strip that is recessed in to the side panels. This provides a seamless look and hide the LEDS away nicely when they're not in use.

Our standard paint finish is a water based spray finish by Renner, which is the brand we opt for the vast majority of the time. This provides a beautiful clean finish with varying ranges of sheen.
