Lessons Learned
Integrating Bespoke Joinery Around Existing Features
Creating built-in shelving and storage around an existing fireplace required careful planning and accurate measurements. By designing the cabinetry around the chimney breast, we were able to maximise storage while creating a balanced focal point within the room.
Combining Multiple Trades Efficiently
This project involved carpentry, drylining, plastering, heating upgrades, electrical work, and decorating within a single room. Coordinating the trades in the correct sequence allowed the project to be completed efficiently while maintaining a premium finish throughout.
Project Outcome
This Victorian living room in Oxshott was transformed from a dated and underutilised space into a modern family room with improved storage, upgraded electrics, new heating, and bespoke built-in shelving.
The completed room now features custom cabinetry, floating shelves, upgraded lighting, a new radiator, and a premium decorating finish. Careful attention to detail throughout the project ensured every element worked together to create a clean, practical, and visually striking space.
