Question 1

How much does a bespoke home office cost in London?

Accepted Answer

A bespoke home office in London costs between £3,000 and £25,000+ depending on the scope. An alcove desk with shelving starts around £3,000–£5,000 in painted MDF; a full room fit-out with hardwood finishes and integrated lighting can reach £15,000–£25,000. We provide itemised quotes after a free consultation.

Question 2

How long does it take to design and install a fitted home office?

Accepted Answer

From design sign-off to completed installation, expect 4–10 weeks. Design takes 1–2 weeks, manufacture 2–6 weeks, and installation 1–2 days. We recommend starting 2–3 months before your target completion date, especially during busy periods.

Question 3

Can you build a home office into an alcove or awkward space?

Accepted Answer

Alcoves, under-stair spaces, bay windows, and sloped ceilings are all ideal for built-in home offices. We scribe every panel to the irregular walls typical of London's period properties. A well-designed alcove office uses space that would otherwise be wasted.

Question 4

What materials do you use for bespoke home offices?

Accepted Answer

All carcasses are birch plywood — stronger and more durable than chipboard or MDF-box construction. Visible surfaces can be spray-painted MDF (any colour), solid oak, walnut, or veneered panels. Desktop worktops are available in solid hardwood, linoleum, or lacquered plywood.

Question 5

Do you handle cable management for home offices?

Accepted Answer

Every project includes integrated cable management as standard. This means routed channels in the desktop, concealed trunking behind panels, built-in power sockets, USB charging ports, and designated routes for monitor cables, ethernet, and peripherals. No visible cables.

Question 6

Can a home office double as a guest bedroom?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We design multi-function rooms regularly. Options include a pull-down wall bed integrated into the office cabinetry, a daybed with storage beneath, or a desk that folds away behind cabinet doors. The office disappears when guests arrive.
