Bespoke joinery company in London. Drawn by us and made by Cochrane Bespoke, our joinery partner.
Most showrooms ask you to imagine. Ours asks you to open the drawers. The new design studio is on Fulham High Street. It is home to Cochrane Bespoke at NU Projects. It makes hand made kitchens, wardrobes, vanity units and furniture. They are designed by Sean Cochrane. They are built to be handled, not just admired from a rope line.
A studio you can actually touch
There is a reason a photograph of joinery never quite convinces. Grain and weight do not survive a screen. Neither does the way a drawer glides and stops. The click of a soft-close is lost too. So is the coolness of stone against warm walnut. So we built a studio where you can open every door. You can pull every drawer. Feel the difference between joinery that is bought and joinery that is made. Sean Cochrane, Nick Jeffries’ partner in Cochrane Bespoke, designs every piece. NU Projects builds and installs it.
Built to be opened
The dressing cabinetry is walnut, glazed and lit from within. Behind one door sit three watch winders and a leather-clad safe. They are wound, charged and locked. Below them is a jewellery drawer lined in leather. It has watch pillows and ring rolls, set into a walnut drawer. These are the parts of a room nobody sees until a drawer opens. They are exactly where hand made stops being a brochure word. It becomes something you can feel.
Why hand made is not just a luxury word
A flat-pack cabinet is a set of standard boxes hung on a wall. A made cabinet starts with your room, your ceiling height and your awkward corner. It is drawn and built to fit exactly. Grain is matched door to door from a single tree. So the run reads as one piece. Tolerances are held to a shadow gap you could measure with a feeler gauge. Leather goes where paint would have done. A surface you touch every day deserves it. None of it shouts, which is the point. A room reads as calm when every detail has been decided.
What you can commission
We make kitchens, wardrobes and dressing rooms. We also make vanity units, media walls, libraries and free-standing furniture. All are designed for the specific room and made in the studio. Painted or in timber, traditional or contemporary, everything is held to the same tolerance. If it opens, closes, holds or displays, it can fit your home. It need not be chosen from a catalogue.
Have a room that annoys you every day? Book a design consultation. Bring a photograph of the space, or a drawing, or nothing at all. Opening a few drawers is the fastest way to understand what hand made means.
For architects and interior designers
You may be specifying joinery for a client. If so, this is the studio to send them to. It is also the maker to trust with the detail you drew. We build what is on the drawing rather than value engineering it out. When something genuinely cannot be made, we offer a detail that holds your intent. It is not a cheaper substitute. Specify it, and we will build it. There is more on how that works in practice. Read why your architect and contractor need to work as one team.
Curious what a whole project runs to? What £1 million buys in a prime London renovation is the honest tour.
