BESPOKE FITTED STUDY
These stunning, high end bespoke wall to wall display and storage cabinets were custom-made and installed for a residence in Wimbledon, London. Our clients wanted to create a large informal study room with a cosy, welcoming atmosphere. We tailored the built-in display and storage units to meet their exact specifications and the impressive design has brought incredible style and structure to the study room. The deep colour and wraparound shelving exude comfort and have created an inviting space to read, converse and relax.
Made to measure for display and storage
Our bespoke commissions begin by discussing and exploring ideas with our clients so we can fully understand and realise their vision. For this fitted furniture, our clients wanted to maximise the storage and shelving space for their library and artworks, while also minimising the floor footprint.
To achieve this we created a run of cabinets with plenty of open shelving above for books. This shelving then wraps around the room, as wall mounted, high level open shelving. These sizes were tailored specifically to match the designer corner sofa.
The resulting design is highly versatile and makes a striking statement in this sitting room study while also feeling like a seamless part of the room.
Rattan weave doors
The shaker style doors on the lower cabinets feature inset rattan weave panels. They allow our clients to house and hide media equipment and routers without the worry of overheating and needing to open the door to let signal and sound through. These gives a vintage, bohemian look to the furniture and add extra interest and natural texture to the room. Each unit divider is finished with a reeded cap accent matching the shaker doors and moulded timber cornice.
The impact of colour and lighting
The units have been finished in Stiffkey Blue by Farrow & Ball, a premium quality, eco-friendly paint which matches the walls. The deep inky blue colour gives the room a cohesive look and creates a dramatic, yet cosy atmosphere. The open shelving features integrated warm white LED lighting which while being functional also brings an attractive glow to the room. Lighting adds dimension and decoration, as well as illumination.
