My Design Process

Bespoke Cabinetry

Step 1: Free Consultation

The first step in my design process is a casual discussion about the piece of furniture you're looking for, your budget, any particular styles you like, and any other crucial aspects. If you're unclear of the exact design, I can start sketching out a variety of options for you to consider. I can move directly to making  if you don't require this.

Step 2: Initial Design

If you require designs help with designing then I will send a quote for a design process to you. There are three rounds of revisions included in the price of design. I will create all initial designs based on our conversation, with your budget and style in mind. The design proposals will be sent to you in the form of rendered CAD drawings so you can fully visualise how the designs look.

Step 3: Finalise & Crafting

Once you are happy with your design, I will then set time expectations for when the project will be finished. My current lead time is 12 weeks. At this stage, I require a 50% deposit, and the remaining 50% is due on completion.

Hand Picked & Sustainably Sourced Wood

My finished pieces are always sturdy, long-lasting and created with environmental sustainability and the local economy in mind. Each item I produce is bespoke and made for you to meet what you’ve set your heart on.
