📺💜 A little different for us. Something special for the family.

If you watched tonight’s BBC DIY SOS, “Building a Future for Macsen”, you may have spotted our contribution to this wonderful transformation in Llanberis, North Wales.

At Understairs Bespoke Storage by Giobella, we were honoured to be invited by the Purple Shirts team to design, supply and install a bespoke reading nook. 📚

The brief was to create a quiet place for the family to sit, read and relax. Our design brought together three drawers side by side, with bookshelves on the wall above, making practical use of the space while creating a welcoming little retreat.

🎨 This project also marked the use of our Canvas frontage — a melamine-faced furniture board with edging specifically designed to be painted rather than using MDF.

Gaby Blackman, the programme’s resident interior designer, wanted to colour-drench the whole lounge, making Canvas the perfect solution to carry her chosen colour across the furniture too. The decorators on site gave us fantastic feedback, commenting that the furniture was “a dream to work with.”

The weather certainly tested everyone on this build. Alongside the challenges that come with such an ambitious project, it took hard work, determination and tremendous teamwork to bring everything together.

The finished home is a testament to the commitment of the local tradespeople, volunteers and the incredible Purple Shirts team. 👏💜

North Wales has given our business so much support over the years. Being able to give something back, and play a small part in building a brighter future for Macsen and his family, meant a great deal to us.

It Got Emotional!

Gaby Blackman, stood at the top of the step ladder, giving a heartfelt thank you speech to all the tradesmen, suppliers and volunteers who came together for BBC DIY SOS Preston, “Bring Dan Home”.

This was the biggest project ever undertaken in 27 years of the programme, and at times it really was challenging. There were moments when it looked like the build might not be finished, with an estimated 8 months of work carried out in just 8 days.

Stressful, emotional, exhausting, but also incredibly rewarding.

A huge well done to every single person involved. It was a privilege for Understairs Bespoke Storage by Giobella to play a small part in such an amazing local project and to see what can be achieved when everyone pulls together.

Just for Dan; DIYSOS Preston

Our design and production teams swung into action at the chance to play a part in this, the biggest ever Project in the 27 years history of DIYSOS, it needed a suite of Bespoke furniture to match the build, and we achieved it!

Engineered to make every centimetre count.

Here is our bespoke 15 drawer understairs installation, designed, manufactured and fitted to fully utilise the whole of the understairs space.

This project features our MAXDepth 90cm drawer boxes, each capable of carrying up to 45kg, giving Dan serious storage capacity without compromising on finish, access or everyday usability.

The frontage is manufactured from Egger Angora Grey 18mm board, finished with colour-matched 2mm ABS edging, and all mounted on our Alpine White Cabriflex cabinetry.

This is what we mean by bespoke engineered furniture: made to the highest production standards in the industry, carefully designed around the space, and built to perform for years to come. Covered by our 5 year guarantee, engineered to give years and years of service.

Being part of the BBC DIY SOS build in Feniton Devon last week was a truly special experience for all of us at Understairs by Giobella.
We felt incredibly proud to contribute our skills and bespoke under-stairs furniture to such a meaningful project, working alongside so many talented tradespeople, suppliers and volunteers. Seeing everyone come together with such generosity, energy and care was genuinely inspiring.
It meant a great deal to play a part in creating something special for a family who deserved it so much. We will remember the experience for a long time.
Tonight, we cannot wait to watch the next episode this week from Southampton and see another wonderful community come together to make a difference.

What a privilege it was for Understairs Bespoke Storage by Giobella to be invited to play a small part in such a special project.

This was more than a renovation. It was a community coming together for Georgie and her young family, after the sudden loss of her husband Chris, who had been working hard to turn their house into a home.

To be able to lend our skills, our time and our bespoke under-stairs furniture to help create a more practical, beautiful and liveable family home was something we will never forget.

A special thank you to the show’s interior designer, Gaby Blackman, who specifically requested a paintable finish without using MDF. In response, we supplied a melamine-faced furniture board specially developed to be painted.

The feedback from the skilled decorators on site was so positive that we now offer this board as our new Canvas range, giving customers a beautifully engineered, paintable finish.

A huge thank you to the DIY SOS team, Nick Knowles, Gaby Blackman, the brilliant local trades, suppliers and volunteers, and everyone who helped bring this transformation together.
We are proud, humbled and grateful to have been involved.

When Only Bespoke Will Do!

True bespoke design isn’t simply about fitting furniture beneath a staircase—it’s about creating a solution that reflects both the home and the homeowner.

For this latest installation, our client selected Antique Rose (Egger U325) from our contemporary Urban Range, perfectly complementing the existing colour palette throughout the property.

Behind the minimalist design lies intelligent engineering.

Using our unique system, we designed a bespoke six-drawer configuration incorporating extra-deep 85cm drawer boxes that fully utilise the available depth beneath the staircase. The result is substantially greater storage capacity without compromising aesthetics.

Manufactured from premium 18mm Egger furniture board, finished with colour-matched 2mm ABS edging, the installation delivers exceptional durability alongside a refined architectural appearance.

The outcome is exactly what bespoke should be: furniture that looks as though it was always meant to be there.
