Bespoke Furniture
We create unique wooden furniture pieces tailored to client specifications. Our process combines traditional craftsmanship with modern design technology to produce durable, sustainable items. Each commission receives individual attention from concept development through to final installation, ensuring perfect integration with the client's space and requirements.
Fitted Wardrobes
Our made-to-measure wardrobes optimise space efficiency while maintaining aesthetic appeal. We design and install custom storage systems that complement existing interiors. Using premium materials and precision craftsmanship, we create solutions that maximise functionality while ensuring long-term durability and visual harmony with the surrounding environment.
Furniture Design
We offer comprehensive design services from initial concept to final execution. Our team provides expert guidance on material selection, spatial planning, and aesthetic considerations. Using 3D visualisation technology, we help clients refine their ideas into practical, beautiful furniture solutions that meet both functional requirements and personal style preferences.
Sustainable Materials
We prioritise environmentally responsible sourcing practices using locally harvested timber where possible. When local materials aren't suitable, we utilise FSC-certified wood to ensure sustainable forestry practices. This approach maintains ecological balance while providing unique material characteristics that enhance each finished piece's individuality and environmental credentials.
Restoration Services
Our specialists revitalise aged furniture while preserving original character. We employ traditional techniques to repair structural elements and restore surfaces, maintaining historical integrity. This service extends the lifespan of cherished pieces, combining conservation principles with modern durability enhancements to ensure continued use for future generations.

Fabulous. Felix and Tim were a delight to work with.They built us two fitted oak wardrobes and a beautiful large bookcase. Great communicators. Responsive and helpful in designing what we wanted. Quality of workmanship superb and prices felt right for the work done. Can't praise them highly enough and recommend you use them if you can.

Felix and Tim made us a bespoke fitted kitchen out of birch ply including cupboards & drawers, worktop and tiered shelving. They were so helpful and easy to work with throughout the project, from the initial design stages where they took our layout ideas and drew up proper plans, and also provided some really innovative ideas for maximising space and storage with our cabinets. Really knowledgable and able to answer all our questions - we new the project was in safe hands! The kitchen they've built is beautifully finished and they gave such great attention to detail down to the brackets, handles

Tim and Felix have done some fantastic work for us and I would recommend them highly to anyone wanting something bespoke and individual. They made us an ebonised worktop, a very large vinyl/bookcase and under-eave storage for our office. We have been very pleased with all the items. Tim and Felix are very easy to get along with, conscientious and tidy.

Tim and Felix worked very closely with us to design and build custom fit shelving, a new reception desk as well as freestanding unit specific to the hair salon. We made it clear that we wanted to use reclaimed wood so they sourced some beautiful scaffolding boards and pine which look amazing. The execution is flawless. We could not be happier with the pieces and cannot recommend these guys highly enough if you are looking for craftsmen who know their trade and can produce beautiful pieces of furniture. Thank you guys!

Just had a beautiful large dining table and benches made by Arbor (Feb 2018) in English oak and ash. Really involved me in the design process and gave good advice (which turned out well!). Excellent workmanship and lovely finish. Honest and friendly in all communication and a very fair price. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic craftsmanship. Felix made us 2 beautiful pieces of furniture and build each design to our specifications offering great advice and ideas along the way. I am so pleased with the finished furniture, that will be handed down to my kids in years to come!
