Kensington’s been good to me, and I’ve made it my base for the last twenty years, and in that time, I’ve redone my house top to bottom more times than I care to admit. Kitchens, studies, lounges, snug rooms—you name it, we’ve done it. And if there’s one thing I won’t compromise on now, it’s furniture. Not the mass-market stuff. I’m talking proper made-to-measure design, built by people who understand detail—and that’s where Smithers absolutely shine.

My wife actually discovered Smithers, and I’ll be honest—I didn’t expect much. But one look at their madcap cocktail cabinets and I was hooked. It wasn’t chasing trends—just solid, confident design with a bit of wit. The first piece we bought was a brutalist sideboard for the dining room, and it just snowballed from there. Everything they make feels weighty, honest, and bold. I’ve since had them build a Bespoke Furniture London online shop drinks unit in the snug, and every time, they’ve delivered.

What most people don’t realise is this: it fits like a tailored suit. The size is right. And unlike some luxury brands who charge more for less, handmade bespoke furniture London Smithers are all about craft. I like that they aren’t afraid to push the design, but I also like that they’re punchy. You want a steel and brass bookshelf that curves into a corner? They’ll sketch it up in two days. You need leather that smells like an old Bentley interior? Done.

I’ve sent friends to them in Mayfair and Holland Park and every single one
