Bespoke Furniture
We create tailored furniture solutions from initial design concepts to final installation. Our process combines practicality with aesthetic appeal, ensuring each piece enhances its environment. Clients benefit from our in-house expertise in joinery, upholstery, and metalwork for unique, long-lasting creations.
Upholstery
Our specialist team handles all upholstery needs, from headboards to complex seating arrangements. We offer re-upholstery services and custom-made cushions with decorative details like deep buttoning. Trade and private clients receive professional finishing for both standalone and fitted pieces.
Joinery
We craft made-to-measure fitted furniture including wardrobes, storage units, and vanity units. Our joiners ensure precision in both modern and traditional designs, providing durable solutions that optimise space while maintaining aesthetic coherence with surrounding interiors.
Metalwork
Specialising in brass, aluminium, and stainless steel, we create decorative inlays and structural metal components. This service supports furniture makers and designers seeking unique finishes, with options for antiqued, brushed, or polished surfaces to complement bespoke pieces.
3D Modelling
Our digital rendering service provides photorealistic visualisations of furniture within interior spaces. Design professionals use this tool to present concepts to clients, ensuring clarity on dimensions, finishes, and spatial relationships before manufacturing begins.

Do not use Origins. They made a side tables and a storage unit for me. They were hugely overpriced and poor quality, no elegance in the design, with mistakes vs the spec which meant the items didn't fit. There are much better companies out there.

I have found Origins Design to be both professional and friendly when working with the team. The quality of their furniture is exceptional and they are very open to discussing new designs and ideas to ensure we create some wonderful furniture. Their knowledge is also an amazing support when I need further information regarding some aspects of design.

Origins Design produces custom made furniture from South West London. A lot of effort goes into their designs and supplying their customers with the best fit for their homes. Anything from size to material is open for customization. We worked with them on their SEO, eCommerce, CMS and also their logo design. Working with this accomplished team was a smooth process as they are professional in all their endeavors.
