Georgian sytle gentlemans study

Georgian sytle gentlemans study

Project goal: To design a gentleman-style study in an Georgian home, perfectly blending with its existing features. Custom shelves were needed to house the client’s extensive book collection, complete with a library ladder for easy access. The result: a sophisticated library that seamlessly integrates into the home’s charm while meeting the client’s practical needs

Materials: Moisture resistant MDF with a polyurethane spray lacquer in Paint and Papers Scarlett and Rust. Ladder made from solid walnut with Library ladder Co fixings. LED strip lighting on all shelves  gives the final high end look.

Client testimonial

Martin did a great job transforming a room in into a library by building beautiful bookshelves.

He designed and built bespoke bookshelves, exactly to our brief, which are in keeping with the Georgian features of our house, while feeling modern too. He spent time getting the design exactly right including discrete lights, shelf and cupboard dimensions to fit the right amount of books and our speakers plus a ladder. He also worked hard to ensure the colour perfectly matched our walls.

We love our library, as does everyone who visits. I would not hesitate to recommend Martin who has extremely high standards and provides high quality workmanship.

Useful informaton

Commissions start at £5000 +VAT and are typically between £10,000 and £50,000.

MW Creative Carpentry will guide you through the design, build and installation process to deliver outstanding results on time, and on budget.

In order to install projects in a safe and timely fashion, please ensure all access routes and relevant spaces are clear and that children and pets are kept away from tools and materials.

 

We ask customers not to open any wrapped panels if they are left in the property overnight. MW Creative Carpentry will not be held responsible for any damage that may occur in such instances.

 

We will require parking to be available within a sensible distance of the installation property. Please provide all relevant permits or tickets upon arrival.

 

The customer should coordinate with any other construction projects taking place in the property in order to avoid any delays or accidental damage during the installation process. If our installation is delayed, there will be a daily fee of £60 +VAT, as well as any extra costs to repair any damage.

 

Our real wood and veneered products have a protective UV finish to reduce the chance of them changing colour due to direct sunlight; however, some natural materials may still discolour slightly over time despite this.

 

For all other questions, please refer to our T&C’s.

Most of our materials and finishes are incredibly durable but are not indestructible.

For maximum longevity, we recommend that customers follow some simple care instructions to protect their furniture:

 

  • Avoid placing items on furniture that might cause chips, watermarks, and scuffs. Coasters, placemats and covers are recommended.
  • Be sure to dry off any wooden furniture that comes into contact with water to ensure longevity.
  • We recommend the use of furniture polish with a microfibre cloth and to avoid strong cleansers and cleaning agents.
  • If you experience any functional problems with our furniture, please don’t hesitate to contact us and we will happily assist you.

 

If you are unsure how to use or care for your furniture, please ask for more information.
