From wasted space to practical storage.
This cupboard was little more than an awkward, unusable recess that offered very little storage. By redesigning the space from the ground up, I transformed it into a fully functional built-in shelving unit, making use of every inch available.
The project also involved resizing and altering the door opening before carefully hanging and fitting a new oak door to suit the new aperture. The result is a cupboard that not only looks like it has always been part of the home but provides a huge amount of practical storage where there was previously very little.
It’s a great example of how thoughtful joinery can completely transform an overlooked space into something both beautiful and genuinely useful.
