Bespoke Shelving in London

“I have worked on numerous projects with Chantel Elshout over many years. Each experience has been trouble free and enjoyable and I would not hesitate to recommend her or indeed the company to anyone.”

“I hired Claudia on the recommendation of a friend and she has been incredibly helpful. Initially Claudia came for a ‘home styling’ consultation and she proposed a list of improvements to my main reception rooms and entrance hall. She sent me a clear and well structured brief and fee proposal. The main elements of the ‘make over’ recommendations were: application of a textured wallpaper matching the colour scheme, re-upholstery of my dining chairs, selection of a new coffee table and matching set of ART DECO armchairs, a new console table, a bespoke large overmantle antiqued mirror for the entrance hall and a bespoke hand made ceiling light installation and a new rug in the entrance hall. Claudia’s choices and suggestions were well considered and blended very carefully with our existing style and decoration. The liaison with the makers of the bespoke pieces was time consuming but Claudia managed to get sorted in time for the deadline we had set. I am very happy with the result and would highly recommend her for help with pulling together interiors schemes and sourcing unique pieces.”

“Last year I had some time in-between 2 jobs and decided to build something that I always dreamed of - a garden studio. This was quite a challenge but I really enjoyed it. Where I needed help the most was in decorating the finish product. I'm good with a drill, but when it comes to choosing colours, I'm at lost. And Jo came to the rescue! The brief was simple. I wanted a modern urban man cave with plywood and all that cool Shoreditch style. Jo first selected the main colour which is a deep blue, and some amazing William Morris wallpaper. I was a bit sceptical about the latter but the end result is fabulous. She organised some shelvings and storage with oiled OSB doors, suggested leaving the raw plywood flooring and helped me selecting a nice Scandinavian desk. The end result is exactly ... me! Thanks a million Jo for this outstanding help!”

“We are now nearing completion of our project and B&M have been just exceptional. They are always professional but also very personable and it has been an absolute pleasure to work with them. Olga is the brain behind the design and Anatoly makes it all happen. Olga has the most amazing taste. She not only helped us create a stunning flat but also managed to increase our storage space by 40%! She always brought brilliant ideas to the table and was very patience with us all throughout the creative process. We trusted her 100% and were incredibly impressed with the quality and uniqueness of the pieces that she suggested for us, some even being bespoke. Our hat goes off to Anatoly. He is very thorough and has made this a stress-free experience for us, which is quite an achievement! He dealt with all the suppliers and overcame all logistics and last-minute challenges. He is impossibly resilient and thanks to his hard work and perseverance we have just the home that we wanted. All in all, we could not be happier with the end result. We can highly recommend Black & Milk.”

“I was so pleased with the work Emilie did for me. I have an open plan kitchen/living room which is an awkward space and she had to work with the existing aesthetics of the living room space and incorporate a kitchen design. I felt like Emilie really understood my taste, especially with colour and how colour works with period styles. She also really listened to the way I used the space and although the kitchen is fully functional, most of the utilitarian (ugly) stuff is hidden away so it's not visible when you're relaxing in the living room. Like everyone who lives in a small space, I was particularly pleased that she found lots of clever ways for hidden storage. It was super helpful to have a designer / project manager rolled into one, for sourcing fixtures, fittings and specialist builders and also because I was too busy at work to look over the day to day stuff. Emilie would just send photos on her phone so I could quickly and easily make decisions and minimise delays in the process. Having your kitchen done can be stressful at times so it was great to have just one single point of contact throughout, especially someone with Emilie's experience and understanding. I'm so happy with the finished result, and I have come to enjoy it even more over time as a bespoke kitchen designed to fit my living requirements rather than a standard 'showroom' kitchen.”

“From our first meeting Sai understood my design brief and came up with ideas straight away. She knew I wanted to stretch my budget and didn’t hesitate to recommend high street products to sit alongside my bespoke pieces to get my look right. We kept in touch with regular meetings for updates. I’d highly recommend Sai whatever budget you have and any size of project.”

“Carpenters turned an empty bulkhead at foot of stairs into a window seat with a hatch for storage under, and integrated shelving on top. Second phase was to redecorate paint this stairwell, including filling ceiling from spotlights removed, and all skirting etc, doing the same turning our spare bedroom into a nursery. Tim didn't have an electrician in his team, but recommended one who is the best I've come across (reliable, reasonably priced & pleasant). I found Tim and his team easy to work with and will definitely use again and recommend to friends. These works were part of a number of renovations we did on our home mid to late 2014. I used numerous providers for different jobs and had issues with all other providers (which needed multiple return visits to rectify) not so with West London Carpentry - they stood out from the rest. Thanks!”

“Great service provided by Tiffany Ring - the brief being to help me make some decisions on painting my living room, getting some built in shelving and purchasing a new sofa! I had ideas in my mind but needed confirmation that I was doing the right thing and some professional advice on what would and and wouldn't work. As I could hook up on a mail with Tiffany before our session she came armed with interesting ideas and post meeting kept in touch offering contact details for the various professionals that I needed. I felt I had been matched up with he right buddy for me - would advise anyone to give it a go!”

“We visited the Leicht Kitchen Design Centre in Sevenoaks with the intention of replacing our kitchen in our 3 year old new build house with something similar but of better quality. However, upon seeing the fabulous range of cabinetry and finishes available decided to spend more on a kitchen that would complement the style and furnishings in our open plan space. Leicht suggested features that make our kitchen unique to us. We are delighted with the carbon grey and alpine wood combination. The island is of a bespoke design incorporating a integrated hob, wine cooler, seating, cupboards & drawers and shelving. Leicht worked with us to create a kitchen we are all proud of that feels part of the overall style of our room rather than a functional space.”

“The experience was a positive one, Dolphin Craft were professional and friendly team. The communication was clear from the start and we were fully satisfy with the way they manage the project and the quality of the final product. The price was what you expect for a bespoke furniture and wardrobes.”
