Let’s face it, gratisafhalen.be living in this city means you’ve had to work around awkward spaces. From skinny staircases in upstairs flats to tiny kitchens with no counter space, the architecture here isn’t made for flat-pack. That’s where made-to-measure furniture comes in. And no, it’s not just for the rich crowd in Kensington. Custom furniture makes sense for regular people—especially if you’re tired of living with wobbly, badly-fitted bits. No two flats or houses in this city are alike.

So why would you settle for something made for someone else’s space? I once helped a family in Shepherd’s Bush who had this tiny dining space under the stairs. No shop-bought table would fit—trust me, they tried. So we had a bench seat built into the wall, and suddenly the room worked perfectly. That’s the kind of difference you get when something’s built for your home. Another client in Hackney had an awkward loft bedroom with a sloping ceiling.

Nothing from the catalogue would slot in. We worked with a local joiner to create drawers that tucked under the beams. Now it feels like a proper room. When you go bespoke, you also get a say in the materials. Want reclaimed wood? You’ve got it. Hate chrome legs? You can skip all that. It’s your furniture, your way. Now, don’t get me wrong. There’s a time and place for IKEA. But for the pieces that matter, custom is just better.
