For London offices and studios

Bespoke office shelving and storage

Files on spare desks, equipment without a proper home, cupboards that waste the available wall. We design shelving and fitted storage around what your team uses, how often they need it and the space you have.

Shelving that fits the contents

Plan shelf heights around files, samples and display pieces. Tell us about heavy items before we specify shelf spans, supports and fixings.

Cupboards for everyday supplies

Combine open shelving with closed storage for stationery, coats and shared supplies. Agree the internal layout and any locking requirements before choosing the finish.

Equipment you can still reach

Allow space for printer trays, maintenance, ventilation and cables. A device fitting inside a cupboard does not mean it can operate there with the doors closed.

A storage commission, or part of a wider fit-out

Send photographs, approximate wall dimensions, your London postcode and what needs storing. We will discuss a guide price for your scope, then work through the measured design, materials and installation arrangements. Share office hours, delivery restrictions and landlord requirements early so these can inform the programme.

Commercial joinery case study

Bespoke walnut shelving and storage for a private equity office

A private equity firm commissioned LV Carpentry & Tradesmen to design and install fitted storage for its new headquarters. The brief combined substantial archive storage with open shelving suitable for the boardroom, all finished in American black walnut.

The office needed to work as well for the people using it every day as it did for visiting clients. Files needed secure storage. Meeting equipment needed ventilation. Building services had to remain accessible once the cabinetry was installed.

Planning around the building

Before fabrication, we surveyed the space and coordinated the joinery with the existing heating, ventilation and electrical services. The raised access floor needed particular attention. We used a structural support frame fixed to the concrete slab beneath it, so the archive storage would not rely on the floor tiles for support. Reinforced shelving accommodated the heavier contents.

Concealed ventilation channels and removable access panels allowed the building’s services to remain accessible. That access formed part of the design from the outset, rather than becoming a problem to solve after installation.

An 8.5-metre walnut storage wall

The boardroom storage wall brought open display shelving and enclosed cupboards together across an 8.5-metre run. We matched the walnut grain across the cabinet fronts to give the long elevation a consistent appearance.

Dark bronze detailing framed the timber, while recessed warm-white lighting illuminated the shelves. Acoustic backing panels sat within the open alcoves. Behind the doors, the layout provided secure document storage, space for meeting equipment and concealed routes for power and data cables. Ventilated equipment compartments included temperature-controlled fans, with access for maintenance.

Fabrication and installation

We fabricated the joinery over seven weeks before installing it during agreed weekend access windows. This allowed us to work around the firm’s weekday operations and the building management requirements.

On site, we fitted the perimeter details around the existing columns and ceiling mouldings. Power, data and electronic locks were coordinated with the main contractor’s team before the final inspection and clean. The completed installation gave the office a single fitted storage system for archives, display pieces and meeting equipment.

In Demand

What Clients Are Actually Asking For

The brief changes with the building, but the same requests come round again and again. These are the ones we are asked for most.

Traditional Double Fluted Panelling

The most in demand thing we fit. Old traditional double fluted panelling running through the landing areas and the foyer, most often in apartments, where it does more to change how the space reads than anything else you could put in it.

Wine Racks in the Kitchen or Pantry

Fitted wine storage built into the kitchen itself or into the pantry area, sized to the space rather than dropped in as a unit.

Under Stair Storage and Fitted Shoe Racks

Two of the most requested pieces, and usually the two places in a house where the existing storage is worst. Both are built to the actual opening.

Cabinets Hidden Under the Floor

Underfloor cabinets, concealed in the floor itself. It is one of the more unusual things we are asked for and one of the more satisfying to design.

The Colours People Are Choosing Now

Two are in demand at the moment: ox blood and cobalt blue. We do both very well. Everything else is available in any colour you want, so the question at consultation is usually which one the room can carry rather than which ones we offer.

Pricing Guide

What an Interior Fit Out Costs

We price interior fit outs on square footage. A job often comes to somewhere between £20,000 and £30,000, and where it lands inside that has more to do with the material, the fittings and the finishes than with the floor area on its own.

It depends on which space it is and whereabouts in the room the work sits, which is why every project is quoted after a consultation rather than from a price list.

How It Starts

Square Footage, Then a Direction

Most people get in touch with the square footage of the space and a rough direction of what they are after. We draw something out from that, then come and see the space and settle what the job actually is.

We are fully bespoke, so the answer to whether we can build something is almost always yes. The useful conversation is what it should be, not whether it is possible.

Design Consultation

We visit your space, assess the layout, take precise measurements, and understand exactly how you use it before producing a detailed quote.

Design & Specification

We advise on materials, finishes, ergonomics and storage to produce a design that's both beautiful and built around real daily use.

Build & Install

Our team builds and installs every element with meticulous care. Every joint, finish and detail executed to the highest standard.

Common Questions

Interior Fit Out FAQs

Everything you need to know before commissioning your bespoke interior fit out.

Ask a question

Yes. We design and install bespoke shelving, fitted cupboards and integrated storage for London offices and studios. You can enquire about a single storage run or a wider fit-out. Send photographs, approximate dimensions and a list of what you need to store so we can discuss the scope and a guide price.

A shelving or cupboard commission is quoted for its own scope, rather than using a whole-room fit-out price. Length, height, shelf loading, doors, hardware, finish and installation access all affect the cost. We agree the specification and written quotation before work starts.

Tell us your working hours, delivery and lift access, and building-management requirements at the start. We agree access, protection and the installation programme before work begins. Phased or out-of-hours working needs to be discussed and agreed for the project.

We design and install bespoke interior fit outs for residential and commercial spaces including home libraries with floor-to-ceiling shelving and rolling ladders, home offices with built-in desks and integrated storage, and retail and hospitality spaces where the detail and finish genuinely matter.

Yes. We work in commercial offices, studios and hospitality environments as well as private homes. Our commercial work is delivered to the same standard as our residential projects. Every element is bespoke, built for the specific space and use.

We cover all of London and the wider Home Counties including Surrey, Hertfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire. No travel charges apply within these areas. If you are further afield, contact us to confirm.

This depends on the scope and complexity of the project. A single built-in library or home office is typically 3 to 5 days on site. A full room or multi-room fit out is usually 1 to 3 weeks. We confirm the exact programme with your quote so you know what to expect before we start.

We work with painted MDF in any RAL or Farrow & Ball colour, natural oak and walnut veneers, high gloss lacquer, fabric-wrapped acoustic panels and bespoke ironmongery. Finish options are discussed at consultation and we bring samples to your home so you can see and feel the options in context.
