Personal Style

The benefit of commissioning your own piece of furniture is that it can be completed in a style and finish to suit you and your home. You may wish to match your piece to an existing colour in your home or indeed you may want something bold and unique. Whatever finish you are looking for we can help you to create the perfect piece.

Our design and build practice utilises the highest quality materials, fixtures and fittings ensuring both the safety and durability of your furniture.

Our standard selection includes furniture grade pine, moisture resistant hardwood furniture panels, pet and food-safe paints or waxes, and a choice of worktops.  Our furniture grade wood is FSC certified and responsibly sourced.

Alongside our established selection of materials, fixtures and fittings we also provide flexibility and choice throughout the design process. We can incorporate different woods and an endless choice of finishes, colours and ironmongery to align with your preferences.

Through our commitment to using safe and durable materials we create secure, practical and elegant furniture for your pet and home.

Worktop

The worktop creates a perfect space for display or can provide a functional worktop in the kitchen, an office desk or TV stand.

Where worktops are predominately for display purposes we use Paulownia, which can be waxed in a range of colours. Paulownia is a sustainable and attractive wood with a beautiful grain. Where worktops will encounter heavier use, such as in the kitchen, we advise selecting a hardwood or composite material. These are very durable and easy to maintain.

Ultimately, the choice of worktop should reflect your personal preference. Popular choices include Oak, Black American Walnut and Terazzo.

 

Drawers

Storage plays a significant role in the design of our furniture. One popular option is incorporating drawers, particularly above the bed section, creating a luxurious and functional sideboard above the dog crate. The number of drawers we can include depends on the length of the furniture, ensuring that it remains spacious and comfortable for your dog without impeding their head height.

Additionally, drawers can be positioned to the side of the dog crate, offering valuable extra storage. This configuration is ideal for use as a chest of drawers in a bedroom, providing convenient storage solutions alongside the crate.

Cupboards

To optimise storage capacity in your furniture, cupboards also provide an ideal space for storing dog food, clothes, and other household items. Cupboards can be positioned on either side of the dog’s crate space or above it, creating a spacious and luxurious dresser-style piece of furniture. With the addition of cupboards, you can efficiently store various items, ensuring a clutter-free and organised living environment.

I can't express how much I love our new piece of furniture for our dog Max! It fits with our home perfectly, Max loves having it as his safe place and sleeping area. Everyone that comes round comments on how lovely it is and I always send them straight onto your Instagram page. It has made such a difference to the feel of our home and I was so thankful that I managed to find a company that could make exactly what we were looking for, for a suitable price that was based in the UK!

Colour

We have a select palette of Farrow & Ball colours for you to choose from. You also have the freedom to select any paint colour or brand of your preference, allowing us to perfectly match your furniture with your home’s aesthetic. We utilise RAL codes to achieve an exact colour match for your furniture.

In terms of the finish, we prioritise durability and longevity. We exclusively use the toughest and most resilient paints available, ensuring that they are not only washable but also scrub-resistant. This guarantees that your furniture maintains its beautiful appearance over time, even with regular cleaning and daily use.

Ironmongery

Through rigorous testing and evaluation, we have curated a collection of premium ironmongery and hardware options for our furniture. Our carefully selected range includes high-quality hinges, handles, latches and bars available in sleek silver or black finishes. Within our house handle styles, you can choose from knob handles or bar handles, each designed to enhance the overall aesthetic of your furniture.

Moreover, we offer to match your existing interior. During the design phase, simply inform us of your preferences, and we will gladly accommodate your request. We can either order the specific hardware on your behalf or, if you prefer, you can mail the chosen items directly to our workshop address. Our aim is to ensure that every detail of your furniture aligns perfectly with your vision and complements your home’s style.
