John Lewis Of Hungerford John Lewis of Hungerford created the first painted kitchen cabinetry in the UK back in 1972. 47 years later we are still supplying beautiful, handcrafted cabinets for the kitchen, together with our collection of painted wardrobes, bespoke dressing rooms and free-standing furniture. As well as working directly for the client on their own kitchen or bedroom we also work with a range of architects, interior designers and high-end developers, helping to create, high impact, visual spaces for our clients and their customers. Designed in a personal, customised and unique way, no two designs are the same. The end result is a stunning installation which enhances the value of the property. Our involvement in the design of the kitchen can depend on what stage of the process we join at and the overall budgets. designed kitchen should last for years without any maintenance, which means that the increased price initially pays for itself in the long run. If a client is having building works and we enter at an early enough stage, sometimes we can influence the room layout to achieve the best possible kitchen design. If the location of services such as gas fittings or plumbing have already been decided by the client/contractors then we work with their scheme to design the kitchen layout. As an established, high-end brand we offer a quality product of robust construction to provide longevity for years to come. Our services of designing, manufacturing & installing far exceed the levels of low budget high street brands, and therefore we are able to fulfil the requirements of our client’s needs and desires when it comes to a more discerning choice. Using a well-known brand with a good reputation for quality and design service will always yield a superior result for the project, while you may save money using a more budget specification you may not be able to get exactly what you want and may not get the personal tailored touch that your room deserves. There is also the longevity of the furniture to consider, as a well-made, well- Our current products include 5 styles of kitchen, from traditional to contemporary as well as 4 styles of fitted wardrobes and bespoke dressing room solutions. We have over 80 colour choices and offer a colour matching service too. Our designers are also the single point of contact throughout the entire process from initial concept to finished installation. 90 www.john-lewis.co.uk
