Loxley - Design and Build Anna Weymouth gives a brief overview of our services We have been designing, manufacturing and installing high quality bespoke furniture for over 35 years and maintain a healthy mix of both the private and property development markets. We are knowledgeable with all aspects of household design encompassing Kitchen, Wine Room, Library, Bedroom, Dressing Room, Bathroom and Home Office furniture. Furniture styles and materials Loxley are equally at home with the design of modern furniture installations for luxury apartments and period enhancements in country houses and stately homes. We run two manufacturing streams, each using state of the art processes and which allow for an almost unlimited material choice to be used, ranging from sustainable hard woods and book matched, exotic veneers to modern laminates in deep textured, perfect matt or high gloss finishes. In addition, our furniture is available in factory finished or specialist hand painted finishes to exact client specification. We have no fixed product listings or designs, and as each project is wholly original we have the freedom to accommodate the most challenging requirements - often with innovative solutions - we do what is needed. 62 - www.refurbandrestore.co.uk Increasingly we are constructing furniture specifically designed to contain media equipment such as audio visual systems, often with electrically operated rise and fall TV’s hidden within cabinetry and operated by remote control. DIY market The DIY market is another important aspect of our business and we supply fully built, installation-ready installations throughout the UK and Europe. For the smaller project and upon receipt of some basic room dimensions we shall produce and email designs and costings within a short time frame, without commitment or charge. Working with clients, architects and builders The client / architect relationship is very important to us and we will ensure that close liaison is maintained throughout the design phase in order to guarantee full compliance with the clients expectations. This is one of the most important aspects of our work and key to a successful project. It is also imperative to work closely with builders and their sub-contractors so that electrical and plumbing services and co- ordination issues are dealt with at an early stage allowing installation scheduling to be kept on track. Our dedicated project manager will oversee all on-site activities to ensure a smooth running project. RIBA affiliation We are officially recognised by the Royal Institute of British Architects and whether working on a contemporary design or a sensitive heritage project we shall always employ the current and best design practice. Our workforce Our installation teams are Loxley trained, highly motivated and fully conversant with our products. They carry full corporate insurances and we will provide Risk Assessments and Method Statements as required. Total control Our comprehensive approach, combined with our high quality product and long established supply chain will ensure timely completion and our total project control will deliver a high quality, cost effective result. . . . and Brexit All our furniture is manufactured here in the UK and although we use a small number of imported items our management and cost base is both efficient and competitive - and we will keep it that way!
