Furniture By Design

Covering Hertfordshire, Essex and surrounding areas. Established in Stansted, on the border of Hertfordshire and Essex by Ed Howley in 1990, Furniture By Design is one of the leading specialists in the UK when it comes to built-in and made-to-measure fitted furniture for the home. Our on-line showroom for bedroom furniture, studies, lounge furniture, TV & media units and bookcases - all fitted - showcases our versatility. Unlike most fitted furniture companies, we are not limited to standard product ranges - we provide a bespoke service to your specification using modern, value-for-money foil-wrapped MDF in wood grain effects - in plain colours or high gloss finishes.

All our fitted wardrobes are built floor-to-ceiling using an MDF lap-jointed front frame without the use of unsightly filler panels. Our fitted wardrobe construction method maximises storage space and is fitted to the exact shape of your room by one of our professional craftsmen. Our fitted wardrobe interiors are designed to your individual requirements for hanging space, shelving and drawers. You can also choose from our wide selection of accessories. Other fitted bedroom furniture: matching bedside units, drawers, cupboards, dressing tables, etc. are also available fitted or freestanding.

Our wardrobe front frame construction method is ideal for angled ceilings, it enables us to build exactly to the shape of your room without losing any storage space. The interiors are designed to suit your requirements incorporating hanging space, shelving or drawers. The nature of the construction and the quality of materials allows us to achieve a very high standard of installation. The skill and experience of all those involved from design to manufacture to installation ensures attention to detail.

All furniture is made on a one-off basis to your exact specification, to a high standard and guaranteed for 5 years. Other furniture is built by our skilled cabinet makers, as a rigid carcase construction, jointed and glued for maximum strength and reliability. All our furniture is fitted on-site to the shape of your room by one of our skilled fitters. We do not use ‘flat pack' or standard component units that are merely assembled on site. The benefits of our construction methods are that our furniture maximises valuable storage space, is designed to meet your specific requirements.
