Bespoke Joinery & Fitted Furniture in Hampstead Garden Suburb.
Older houses are full of spaces that off-the-shelf furniture cannot use: chimney-breast alcoves, high ceilings, sloping loft walls, awkward landings. Fitted joinery makes those spaces work, and it is the detail that most often makes a refurbished home feel finished.
We design every piece to the room, picking up the proportions of the existing doors, skirtings and cornices in the period houses of Hampstead Garden Suburb, or making a deliberately contemporary contrast where that suits the scheme. Wardrobes, dressing rooms, media walls, home offices, libraries and boot rooms are all drawn in full before they are made.
Manufacture takes six to eight weeks from approved drawings, followed by a few days on site for installation and hand-finishing. Where joinery forms part of a wider refurbishment, it is programmed in with the rest of the work.

Hampstead Garden Suburb: the houses and the planning rules.
Hampstead Garden Suburb is a planned Arts and Crafts suburb begun in 1907, with cottages and houses by Unwin, Parker, Lutyens and their contemporaries set on tree-lined roads around Central Square. The whole Suburb is protected twice over, by Barnet as a conservation area and by the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust, which must approve any external change.
Owners here typically want to extend and modernise without losing what makes the houses special. That means extensions designed in the Suburb's own language, roofs and windows that follow the Trust's guidance, and interiors that bring services and kitchens up to date while keeping the original joinery and proportions.
The whole Suburb is a conservation area, with Article 4 directions on every street and the Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust as a second consenting body.
London Borough of Barnet
Barnet decides planning applications, with Article 4 directions across the Suburb removing permitted development rights for all external work.
The Trust
The Hampstead Garden Suburb Trust must also approve external alterations under the scheme of management, with its own design guidance and application.
Materials
Handmade tiles, brick, timber windows and lime render are expected; the Trust publishes detailed guidance for each.
