Make it your own

Every home is different – and not just because of the unique ambience created by each family, but also due to the dimensions and proportions of each room and space within it. That’s where custom-sizing your furniture comes into its own – something our artisans at Gatehouse specialise in.

We’re all too familiar with the experience of finding a piece of furniture that is perfect in every way, except for the fact that the tape measure doesn’t lie. It’s a little like trying to convince yourself that you can still fit into a favourite dress or pair of vintage denims.

Fortunately, the remedy in the case of furniture can be achieved with a considered change of dimensions to ensure a perfect fit, whilst altering the ratios of one of our creations can help it seamlessly transition through time and space – from classic to contemporary or modern.

Bespoke furniture lets you express your existing sense of style – or give free rein to your playful side and create a whole new look. There really are no limits to what can be one when you embark on the adventure of having furniture made especially for you – our carpenters and upholsterers can adjust every aspect of your chosen piece, including the frame, filling, cushions, and fabrics. In short, if you can imagine it, we can create it.

In addition, we’ll provide expert advice on making your Gatehouse creation not just unique, but stylish and comfortable. Knowing that there isn’t another one quite like it anywhere in the world is a special feeling that you can enjoy anew each day.

As well as ensuring a physical fit with your home, our experts will consult with you as to your personal style and existing décor to achieve a complementary look – unless of course you’re in the mood for a fearless frisson of contrast. We can do that, too.

You can further enhance the sense of exclusivity that comes with your new piece by requesting personalised features that fit your lifestyle and the way you prefer to relax. After all, customising your furniture is about ensuring that it feels right, as well as looking fantastic.

In common with every other Gatehouse item, you’ll know that your bespoke article has been made by skilled artisans with impeccable attention to detail, and using only the finest materials.

Individually made furniture is a treat for all your senses, but it’s also an investment in your own aesthetic sensibilities and your identity. It’s a way to stand out, and be yourself. Rather than trying to stylistically or physically shoehorn in a piece that simply doesn’t fit or work where you want it to, you’re acquiring an item that you already know you’ll love.

The sense of ownership is deepened and enhanced by your role in the design process, while being able to specify the dimensions means that you can start to visualise it in place, even while we are still working on your order.

Quality and customisation come naturally to the Gatehouse team, and we look forward to creating furniture that will delight you and your family for years to come.
