A couple of bespoke fitted furniture projects completed this week 👌
First up was this alcove unit, built to mirror the original built-in cupboard on the opposite side of the room while keeping everything in character with the property. The customer wanted a more open layout, so instead of the original centre cupboard design I built open shelving with hidden storage cupboards top and bottom 🙂
The second project was a set of fitted birch ply wardrobes. The customer already had a pair of IKEA wardrobes that worked well internally, but wanted them transforming into something that looked fully fitted and bespoke.
I made a complete set of new birch ply doors, matching fillers and end panels, along with overhead cupboards to take everything right up to the ceiling for a clean built-in look. The birch ply grain on this one came out beautifully 👌
Really enjoyed these two projects — both completely different styles but both designed to maximise storage while looking like they’ve always belonged in the room.
