Home / Bespoke Furniture / Built-in Storage

Turning dead space into the best space

Alcoves, staircases, sloping eaves and blank walls — the parts of a home most people give up on are exactly where we do our best work.

Floor to ceiling built-in storage and shelving in solid wood

Built-in storage

Storage that looks like architecture

A great built-in should feel like it was always there. We scribe our units tight to your walls, ceilings and skirting so there are no gaps, no filler strips and no sense of furniture that was simply pushed into place.

Open shelving to show off books and objects, closed cupboards to hide the rest, or a mix of both — designed to the exact proportions of your room.

  • Alcove and chimney-breast shelving
  • Under-stair drawers and pull-outs
  • Media walls with hidden cabling
  • Boot rooms, utility and laundry storage

Where it shines

Favourite places to build in

Living-room alcoves

The classic pair of alcove units either side of a chimney breast — shelves above, cupboards below.

Under the stairs

Deep pull-out drawers and hidden cupboards that finally make that triangular void useful.

Media walls

A tidy home for the TV, speakers and consoles, with every cable routed out of sight.

Will the unit look built-in or like furniture?

That is your choice. We can scribe it seamlessly into the room or leave it reading as a freestanding piece — whichever suits the space.

Can you paint the units to match my walls?

Yes. We prime and spray-finish in any colour, or leave the timber natural under oil or lacquer.

Do you handle the making-good afterwards?

Our installers fill, caulk and tidy the joins so the finished unit is ready to use — and easy for your painter to touch in.
