The Local Guide to Bespoke Kitchen Companies in East London
As part of our mission to help you find a great Kitchen Company to work with we are creating a series of local guides to help you find companies in your area from fitted kitchens to bespoke furniture and everything in-between.
These mini-directories feature a selection of companies in your area and the people who own and run them; in this edition we look at kitchens in and around East London from the City to Shoreditch, Hoxton to the Isle of Dogs.
East London is a really vibrant and exciting part of the city and with such a densly packed population urban cool is the order of the day in the heart of EC1 and good traditional design as you head towards the essex borders.
We have a mix of companies including an International Brand, a company creating bespoke kitchens to order and traditional cupboard makers. The term Bespoke is often argued over but we class it as any company who build cabinet sizes to your exact requirements; so although door styles and designs may be defined by ‘ranges’ the final kitchen is built for you.
AK Furniture design and build durable, contemporary kitchens entirely to their clients’ personal requirements. They use high-quality fittings to ensure a smooth-running, long-lasting kitchen and they build all of their carcasses “in-house” so can provide a variety of finishes to suit each specific design.
As trained Cabinet Makers this is truly bespoke kitchen design with nothing as standard and every kitchen designed and built from the ground up

And finally for this edition we have Plain English; this showroom is actually in Hoxton so on the North London Border!
- Plain English pride themselves on being a traditional joinery company and they still use the techniques and skills of 18th and 19th century cabinetmakers; attention to detail is the key with most drawers running on candlewaxed wooden runners, shelf pegs hand turned and baskets hand-woven for them in Suffolk.
