We’ve just finished making this bespoke desk and storage unit in oak for some clients, and it couldn’t be more different to the bespoke and fitted ultra-contemporary kitchen we completed just before Christmas. Our clients live in old thatched house, so wanted the unit to blend in with and respect the old character of the rest of the house’s interior. …
Life’s a beach for Alfie
Remember Alfie our much-loved company hound? He also enjoyed a decent break over the Christmas and New Year period to relax and stretch his legs (and paws..). The beautiful beaches of North Devon are his destination of choice, and there aren’t many places better to go for bracing walks in the UK when the sky is blue and the sun …
Have van, will travel
This is our company van without which it’d be hard to get much done. There’s also room for a cage for Alfie (remember Alfie the workshop dog?) in the back as he’ll come along on the occasional journey too. It’s proven that advertising on your work vehicle really works, so if you see the van parked up or out and …
Bed in walnut
This is a bed we were commissioned to make a couple of years ago, and we still think it looks great today – made in walnut, a prized cabinetmaking wood which is strong and beautiful at the same time. If you’d like us to make you something similar and just as individual for your bedroom, please contact us here.
Love your shoes
Shoes don’t really get looked after well by most of us – come in through the door, kick them off, and they’re likely to end up in some dusty corner, or disappear underneath an even dustier sofa. We think shoes should be treated better, and so when we build and design our wardrobes, we always try and incorporate some intelligent …
Want to see some etchings?
This is another shot taken in detail from the set that we did of the finished oak wardrobes for a client in Essex. The client was very clear about what sort of glass he wanted on the wardrobes, and what kind of pattern. We drew an idea in CAD, which the client liked, then had the design sand etched onto …
Work in progress – bespoke fitted bedroom wardrobes
More works in progress in our workshop. These are fitted wardrobes, made to measure for a client’s bedroom. The interiors are made in lacquered oak, and the exteriors are painted white. The doors and side parts are made of a frame and panel construction with a bead detail (see the photo above), and all the painted components are constructed …
Commission in progress – bespoke bed and bedroom furniture in American Walnut
We are working on a commission for a client that is a bed frame, headboard, fitted wardrobes, a drawer chest and bedside drawers – all to be made in American Walnut. American Walnut has a very attractive grain which when polished and lacquered really comes through beautifully – see the last photo. Fixtures and fitting in chrome, stainless steel and …
Is your imagination as wild as ours?
In reality, at Mark Williamson Furniture we can make anything in wood that you could dream up in your imagination. We dreamt up these laminated chairs, and then built them. Tell us what you imagine, and we can design and build it. Contact us here.
That’s entertainment
If you’re like us, you might have a TV, Sky box, maybe a sound system, perhaps an X-Box or other type of gaming system, and a DVD player, oh, and speakers too. That all makes lot of cables. And mess. That’s the last thing you want after a hard day’s work and you just want to flop in front of …
