A building is like a face. The architect

creates the shape – the proportions and

features. But it’s the detail and finish

that complete the character, giving

the face expression and individuality.

Making it smile.

Good joinery is key. It can make the

difference between a lifeless box and a

welcoming, memorable space that’s a

joy to live and or work in. It can cover

essential elements, like windows, doors

and staircases, and unique special

features, from the purely decorative to

the eminently functional. It can be at

the cutting edge of modern design, or

it can hark back to a gentler age. With

the help of our unique bespoke joinery

workshop, it can do almost anything you

want it to do.

We design, build and install bespoke

furniture for individual homeowners,

hoteliers, universities, retailers, schools,

interior designers and architects. For

many years we have taken pride in

producing the highest quality, bespoke

architectural joinery for a range of

diverse clients with highest expectations.

You can commission us before, during

or after a project is underway, and from

our base in Scotland, we can service

just about anywhere in the UK.

There’s virtually no limit to what we can

achieve. A sleek, imposing reception

desk for an office complex, architraves

for a restored Georgian manor house,

a stairway for a cutting-edge duplex

apartment, a unique storage system for

a cellar full of precious vintage wines.

Equally, if you need simple solutions

for skirting, panelling, windows and

other essential elements, we’ll apply the

same exacting standards of quality and

craftsmanship.

Because in joinery, the difference

between the beautiful and the ordinary

comes down to skill, care and quality.

Or in one word, craftsmanship.

QUALITY& CRAFTSMANSHIP

E X E M P L A R Y S E R V I C E ,

FF& CRAF& CRAFFFFFOur service is led by dedicated,

experienced managers, each with a

great understanding of the craft of

joinery. Moreover, they also have a

track record of working with architects,

builders, specifiers and homeowners

to achieve the best and most efficient

solutions, choosing materials and

techniques to suit the overall design and

working alongside our clients to advise,

guide and ultimately deliver superb

pieces of work. We work with each

client closely whether a homeowner or

a professional, to help develop ideas,

find cost effective solutions, inspire and

delight.

Once a project is planned, our

craftsmen come into their own. We

employ a team of highly skilled,

experienced joiners. To work with us,

they need to demonstrate complete

mastery of their craft, as well as attention

to detail, reliability and imagination.

Our people are the best, and they take

enormous satisfaction in delivering a

superb service.

We can produce any form of traditional

architectural joinery, and many specialist

areas and new techniques – in fact we’ll

be delighted to consider and quote on

any piece of work. With an on-site paint

shop and coatings service, we can go

far beyond the joinery service to provide

a true finished product to meet your

specification.

We produce all work to the highest

standards of finish and fit on site as

required. Our projects range from

individual pieces and restoration pieces

to whole home, building interiors and

project specific fit out furniture for

retailers and hotels.

And as buildings continue to change

with wear and use, and because timber

is a living, breathing material, we pride

ourselves on offering an exemplary after-

sales service. Whenever you need our

help, you can rely on our full attention.

Bespoke solid timber cabinets installed to receive server canopies in a five star hotel and restaurant. The installation was constructed to suit the exact requirement of the refrigeration and food chiller plant for the kitchen server areas in the restaurant.

Ristol Homes

For Studio Ristol our craftsmen undertook fit-out

works for dressing rooms, vanity cabinets and

bathroom fit-out works. Each of these projects

required our team to work with designers and

clients to meet exacting standards from these

individually designed high specification homes.

Wallace High School

The works involved cabinets for trophy storage

in solid timber, coloured veneers and glass. All

reception desks were bespoke for the individual

school environment with integral voice, power/data

and secure roller shutter installations.

Abertay University – Centre of Excellence

in Computer Games Education

The ‘Ribbon Lighting Structure’ which connects

the entrance to the reception desk and on

throughout the facility was constructed in

prefabricated units in our joinery workshop

and transported to site in sections for speed of

installation. The installation also had complex

services installations which were co-ordinated and

installed by our team on site. The structure was

then finished in high gloss acrylic panels and a

polymer stretch fabric.

Abertay University Library

This project also involved the

production of a specific storage and

seating installation, known as the

‘Think Pod’ within the library. This

required the creation of a curved

seating unit within a wall storage unit.

The piece was constructed in solid

timber with the seating upholstery

installed on site. This also had lighting

and data feeds for connection to the

University network.

Abertay University

Display cabinets constructed of veneered

panels with integral lighting. The installation was

undertaken during nightshift operations so as to

not affect the day to day running of the university,

which was operational throughout the contract.

We can take care of every aspect of

the project from beginning to end.

We can complete any joinery tasks,

from stairways to reception desks

and from shelving to doors. But

we can also deliver unique, one-off

projects. Creative, innovative new

designs. Sustainable, ecological

solutions. Sensitive restoration of

unique and historic buildings. We

can do it all.

You don’t need to examine the work

of a particular craftsman or ask for

his reference, because we do that.

You don’t need to worry that your

designs are not achievable because

we bring together our expertise with

that of the designer. And there’s

no need for you to find a painter or

finisher to work on the project after

we’ve installed our work, because

we’ll do that for you too.

Above all, you’ll get exactly what

you’ve asked for, finished to the

highest quality.

commercial awareness with an

innovative approach to design,

problem solving and service.

Our workshop has the skills and

capabilities to work for you, whether

you’re an individual home-owner,

an architect, project manager or

specifier, or you’re responsible

for large projects in building,

commercial development or

retailing.

The receptions desks in the main foyer of this luxury hotel were produced by our master craftsmen using end-grain veneers to bespoke architectural designs. The desk itself was produced within the workshop and our team of craftsmen then carried out the co-ordination of services and installation on site.

We’d very much like to discuss a specific project if you have one in mind. If that’s not the case at the

moment, we’d still like to meet, so that we can demonstrate the skills and capabilities of our workshop in

more detail. We will be delighted to visit you on site or at your office, or to arrange for you to come to us.
