Painted Platerack Not everyone wants their plates on display but a handmade plate rack can be an efficient way of storing and displaying your crockery if you do. We have found that the standard way of designing a plate rack with bars at the front and back can limit the amount of crockery that can be stored…
Sometimes drawers can just be too big and deep. So we put a hidden drawer at the top to take those thin little things that just do not have a place elsewhere. It can spoil the look of a cupboard to have a thin external drawer and larger one below so we think the drawer…
We have had one of our kitchens featured in October’s Homes and Gardens Magazine on page 160. They are doing a feature on Kitchen storage and liked the larder we made for Amy and Andrew Lindsay in West London. Our kitchen is stuck between a Mark Wilkinson and Clive Christian kitchen. Our style is…

All our drawer units have wooden interior drawer boxes, each on Blum soft close runners. The boxes are constructed using dovetail joints, which are a wonderful feature to have…
