Bespoke solid oak room
This high-end solid oak boot room was designed and handcrafted for our client’s home in Guildford, Surrey. Our brief was to create a durable and functional boot room with a classically stylish look. Handcrafted in sustainable oak this fitted furniture incorporates lots of practical storage and traditional high-quality features that will stand the test of time.
Traditional joinery and design
Traditionally constructed in solid oak, the floor to ceiling cabinetry features soft close doors with a two-panel shaker style and torus skirting. Torus skirting boards are a hallmark of heritage and elegance. The convex moulded profile in a bullnose ridge is a feature that has adorned prestigious interiors for centuries. A hardwearing clear matt lacquer finish maintains the character of the wood and looks like a natural oil or wax finish but is more resistant to scratches.
Customised storage maximises the space
The boot room has been exceptionally well-planned to include made to measure boxed shelving for footwear of all types and sizes. A solid oak bench with a soft closing seat also incorporates traditionally constructed drawers, which are ideal for smaller accessories such as gloves and scarves. Hardware was an important consideration too. The sturdy coat hooks and iron bar type handles have a traditional character with a matching black coated matt finish.
