TRUSTED BY HOMEOWNERS ACROSS THE REGION
Bespoke Kitchens Designed Around Your London Home
London homes do not follow a single template. A Victorian terrace in Dulwich has different proportions, different constraints and different possibilities to a converted warehouse apartment in Greenwich or a Georgian townhouse in Hampstead. Whatever you are working with, your kitchen should be designed around that specific space. Not adjusted from something drawn for a different kind of room entirely. This is where the design work begins.
Every Mastercraft kitchen is designed around your space, built in our own UK workshop, and installed by our team from start to finish. Design, manufacturing and installation all sit with the same people, so there is no handover between separate contractors. The person who designs your kitchen understands exactly how it will be made. Nothing gets assumed or lost between stages.
From First Conversation to Finished Kitchen
Your project starts in your home. A designer visits, looks at the space properly, and begins to understand what you want your kitchen to become. From there, the design takes shape around your actual room. Once the design is agreed, your kitchen goes into production in our workshop, then our installation team fits it. One team carries your project through every stage. You are not left coordinating trades or chasing progress.
Because design, manufacturing and installation all sit within the same team, your project is never passed between separate contractors. The people who designed your kitchen understand exactly how it will be built. The people fitting it know what was designed, and why. In practical terms, that means fewer assumptions, fewer errors, and no one arriving on site who is seeing your plans for the first time. You can read more about how we work and what each stage involves.
Designing Your Kitchen Around Your Space
The design does not start with a catalogue. It starts with your room. Its shape, its light, how you move through it, how it connects to the rest of your home. Layout and proportion come first. The visual decisions follow from that foundation. Not the other way around.
London homes span a wide range of periods and styles. A Victorian terrace, a Georgian townhouse, a converted warehouse, an Edwardian semi, a contemporary new build. Each starts from a different point. Your home has its own proportions, its own constraints, its own possibilities. Your kitchen design is approached on its own terms, not pulled from a template drawn for a different kind of space.
If your room has a chimney breast, an awkward alcove, a sloping ceiling or a wall that cannot move, those things are resolved at the design stage. Not worked around on the day of fitting. Your kitchen is designed to sit within the architecture of your home. By the time manufacturing begins, everything is already accounted for.
Your Kitchen, Built to Last
Your kitchen is made in our own UK workshop, built specifically for your home. Every cabinet is rigid and factory assembled, not flat-pack components put together on site. Factory assembly produces tighter tolerances, more consistent finish quality, and a more accurate fit when your kitchen goes in. What arrives at your home is a finished product, not a kit.
The same standard runs through the whole kitchen, not just the surfaces you see. Drawer runners, hinges, interior fittings, all specified and finished to the same level as the doors, handles and worktops you interact with every day. The parts that work hardest are often the ones you rarely look at. Getting those right is what determines how well your kitchen holds up over time.
Because the kitchen is made in our own workshop, we are not limited to standard dimensions or catalogue options. If your room has an unusual width, a run beneath a sloping ceiling or an alcove that needs something specific, we build exactly what is required. Your space sets the brief. We build to fit it.
- Rigid cabinetry, factory assembled before it reaches your home
- Built in our own UK workshop, not sourced from a supplier
- Every dimension made to fit your specific room
- Interior fittings and hardware specified to the same standard as the finish

Designed and built to last, not to be replaced in a decade.
Start Your Design
If you are planning a considered kitchen project somewhere in London, we are happy to have a conversation. There is no set agenda. If it makes sense to take things further, we can arrange for a designer to visit your home and start from there.
A design consultation means a designer comes to your home, looks at the space properly, and talks through what you want your kitchen to become. We start in your room, understanding how it works and what it needs, before any design thinking begins. It costs nothing to have that conversation.

How long does a bespoke kitchen project typically take from first contact to completion?
It depends on the complexity of your project and how quickly decisions get made, but as a rough guide, you should allow around 12 to 16 weeks from your initial design consultation to installation being complete. More involved projects, particularly those with structural work or complex layouts, can take longer. Your designer will give you a clearer timeline once the scope of your kitchen is understood.
What happens at the initial design consultation?
A designer comes to your home. They look at the space properly, take measurements, and spend time understanding what you want from your kitchen. How you use it, what is not working now, what matters most to you. That conversation shapes the design from the start. You are not asked to sit in a showroom and choose from a display. The process starts in your room.
My kitchen has some awkward features, a chimney breast, a low ceiling and an irregular floor plan. Can you design around those?
Yes, and this is exactly where bespoke design earns its place. Awkward rooms are not a problem to be minimised. They are what the design is built around. Chimney breasts, alcoves, sloping ceilings, irregular walls, all of these are resolved at the design stage. By the time your kitchen goes into production, every dimension and detail accounts for what your room actually contains.
What kitchen styles are available?
Because every kitchen is designed from scratch, there is no fixed range to choose from. In London, we work across a wide range of styles depending on the character of the home. Shaker kitchens suit the proportions of Victorian and Edwardian properties well. Handleless designs work particularly well in contemporary new builds and open-plan spaces. In-frame cabinetry suits period homes where traditional craftsmanship feels appropriate. Your designer will help you find the approach that fits your home and the way you want to live in it.
How does the manufacturing process work?
Once the design is finalised and signed off, your kitchen goes into production in our own UK workshop. Every cabinet is made specifically for your home, built to the exact dimensions of your room. Cabinets are rigid and factory assembled before they are delivered. That means tighter tolerances and a more consistent finish than units assembled on site. Nothing is made until the design is complete and confirmed.
Who carries out the installation?
Our own installation team. The same people who have been involved in your project understand how the kitchen was designed and how it was built. They are not a separate subcontracted fitting team picking up someone else's plans. That continuity matters. It is the difference between an installation that goes smoothly and one that relies on guesswork.
Can you work alongside our architect or interior designer?
Yes, and it often works very well. If you are working with an architect on an extension or a full renovation, or with an interior designer shaping the overall look of the space, we are used to collaborating as part of a wider project team. We bring the kitchen design and manufacturing expertise. Your architect or designer brings the broader vision. The two do not conflict; they complement each other. We are happy to work from existing drawings or to share ours.
We are planning a large open-plan kitchen and dining space as part of a rear extension. Can you design for that kind of layout?
Open-plan kitchen-diners are a significant part of what we do, particularly in London where rear extensions have become a common way to create more usable space. Designing for a large open-plan room requires careful thought about zones, how the kitchen area relates to the dining and living space, where the natural light comes from, and how the layout handles both everyday use and larger gatherings. Your designer will approach the whole room as one space rather than treating the kitchen as an isolated unit within it.
What does a bespoke kitchen from Mastercraft typically cost?
Bespoke kitchens vary considerably in cost depending on the size of your room, the complexity of the layout, your choice of materials and the level of specification throughout. As a general guide, most projects fall somewhere between £25,000 and £60,000, with larger or more complex kitchens sitting above that. The honest answer is that cost is shaped by what your project actually involves, and that only becomes clear once your space and requirements are properly understood. Your designer will give you a clear picture of investment once the design is taking shape. What you are paying for is a kitchen that is built for your home and designed to last for many years.
Does Mastercraft cover the whole of London?
Yes. We work across the full London region, from central areas out to the suburbs and surrounding towns. Whether your home is in Hampstead, Richmond, Bromley or further out, the same team and the same process applies. If you are unsure whether we cover your area, just get in touch and we can confirm.
Do you only design the kitchen, or do you help with the wider space too?
The kitchen itself is our focus, but a good kitchen design cannot ignore the room it sits in. If your project involves decisions about flooring, lighting positions, socket placement or how the kitchen relates to an adjoining space, those conversations are part of the design process. We are not interior designers, but we think carefully about how your kitchen works within the room as a whole.
What if I am not sure what I want yet? Can I still get in touch?
That is a very common position to be in, and it is exactly the right time to have a conversation. You do not need a clear brief or a fixed idea before speaking to us. Often the most useful thing a designer can do early on is help you think through what your kitchen actually needs to be. A home visit costs nothing, and it gives both sides a much clearer sense of what the project involves before any decisions are made.
