DESIGNED TO ENDURE
Bespoke Kitchens That Honour Your Home’s Heritage
Our clients, often the new owners of a period house, are on the cusp of making decisions that will define their home for decades.
By combining thoughtful design with fine furniture making we create distinctive kitchens and back-of-house spaces which sit harmoniously within your home’s architecture.
These rooms are designed for hard work, executed with beauty and care.
At Guild Anderson we understand the responsibility of working within a period building; every line, proportion and detail matters; we are not of a mass production mind set, every client and project is treated as an individual.
The rooms we create are there to be used; for your family’s journey. To be dented, scuffed and enriched with the hallmarks of daily life. To tell stories. And, after a few years perhaps, given a fresh coat of paint ready for the next generation to enjoy.
Estate Cabinetry
In many of England’s most celebrated country houses working were rooms designed and made by the ‘Estate Joiner’, a specialist trade once closely tied to the long-term stewardship of period buildings.
Our approach in English houses mirrors theirs. Our work for you will be well made and good value. The design is carefully considered, understated and devoid of unnecessary flamboyance. Every detail examined with the understanding that our work should outlast us.
By applying the principles of estate joinery to our bespoke handmade kitchens, pantries, sculleries and boot rooms, we create spaces which blend seamlessly with its architecture and perform brilliantly for modern family life.
Our Commitment
Designing good value, high functioning environments for families to enjoy requires teamwork and trust.
Through enthusiasm, curiosity, collaboration and clear communication our role is to help clients arrive at solutions which feel right for both you and your home.
We work in country houses and townhouses throughout the UK; with a focus on, but not exclusively in Wiltshire, Dorset, Hampshire, Somerset, the Cotswolds and London. Smaller kitchens typically cost between £80,000 and £150,000 with larger kitchens costing between £150,000 and £200,000. These figures allow for all key elements and VAT.
We are proud to announce that we have been awarded The Bespoke Guild Mark for work at the Grade 1 listed Palladian House, Trewithen in Cornwall. The award was specifically for our work on the historic home’s back of house spaces, most notably the kitchen and pantry. We are only the third kitchen designer/maker to be given the award.
‘The Bespoke Guild Mark represents the pinnacle of excellence in furniture making, and Guild Anderson’s work at Trewithen exemplifies everything this award celebrates – exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and a profound level of skill and dedication required to create something truly timeless in a space of such historical importance.”
