Hi-fi Cabinet and CD Rack
This hi-fi cabinet and cd rack were designed to match and to be a feature of the room.
Space Saving Bedroom Furniture
The client had originally wanted a dressing table but on reflection during the consultation process, realised a multi-functional furniture set would be more appropriate. This innovative space saving bedroom furniture features a chest of drawers, a mirror and a filing cabinet! The filing cabinet has a safety mechanism, which allows only one drawer to be open at a time.
Waney Edged Bookshelves
A simple brief was given to produce this charming bookshelf: the client had been given some planks of wood, liked the waney edged style and required some more storage for books!
Bookshelves With Cupboards
This client required shelving and cupboards to provide a lot of storage. Four different designs were presented after the initial consultation and one was selected without further modification. The challenge of this commission was to design and create bookshelves to fit a specific space. These pictures illustrate the CAD design process used to design the final bookshelves (below).
His 'n' Hers Washbasin Stand
This contemporary oak washbasin stand has ample storage for him and her! Several coats of oil were applied to protect the wood from water. A plumber installed the basins and taps.
Butcher's Block with Drawer and Shelf
This butcher's block was a long term dream of several decades as it replaced one that was 'adequate but not attractive'. The whole unit is made from beech with a huge drawer that pulls out - all the way - on both sides. Just look at the glorious colour variation between the beech blocks of the top!
