Made-to-measure furniture in Sant Martí, Barcelona

“This was our first made-to-measure project: under-stairs storage. We hoped to turn changing depths into useful drawers and accessible cupboard space, but did not know which material or opening system made sense. We could discuss the first version remotely, then confirm the points that genuinely needed checking at the Barcelona property. Both were explained in ordinary language. Nothing felt improvised on fitting day. Even the order in which the parts came into the room had been considered.”

“We began with photographs and a rough sketch for a kitchen renovation. The aim was to reuse what was sensible and replace worn fronts, runners and the worktop. Because the room is in Barcelona, we asked specifically about narrow lifts and stair turns; it was covered in the proposed sequence. Their reply was practical, not sales-heavy, and the quotation matched the version we had discussed. We kept one of their simpler recommendations. It saved money and, six months on, still feels like the right choice.”

“A friend recommended that we ask about a bespoke sideboard. We sent phone photographs and explained that we needed to store tableware and glassware while keeping a clear surface for serving. Because the room is in Barcelona, we asked specifically about tall ceilings; it was covered in the proposed sequence. The first answer was concise and told us exactly which measurements would be useful. They did not promise that the first sketch was perfect. The second version was much better because it reflected how we actually use the room.”
