A Stunning Showpiece for a Period Home
Budget: From ÂŁ3,000
Client Request
The client wanted a statement piece for their entrance room, which also functioned as an area for entertaining guests. The brief was to create a bespoke bookcase and library ladder that would fit seamlessly into the early 1900s period home.
Materials Used
- High-quality Oak
- Custom paint finish to blend with the home’s interior
The Process
We designed a fully operational, custom-built library ladder to pair with an adjustable bookcase, allowing the client to showcase books, decorative pieces, and memorabilia. Unlike off-the-shelf options, this piece was completely tailored to fit the home’s existing architecture, making it appear as though it had always been part of the house. Special care was taken to match the period aesthetic while ensuring modern functionality.
Final Result
The finished project exceeded the client’s expectations, perfectly balancing aesthetics and practicality. Having worked with this client on multiple projects, including a study, TV campaign chest, curved panelled room, period doorway restoration, and bespoke wardrobes, we have built a strong relationship, and they now trust us implicitly to bring their visions to life.
