The Local Guide to Bespoke Kitchen Companies in Suffolk and East Anglia
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 Kitchen Companies in and around Suffolk; from Newmarket to Ipswich, Southwold to Stowmarket, Bury St.Edmunds to Bungay.
Suffolk combines beautiful and famous coastal towns such as Southwold and Aldeborough and the beautiful rolling countryside made famous as ‘Constable Country ‘ and the home of Britsh Horse Racing in Newmarket. Many people walk the well trodden path to retire from London and the home counties to Suffolk and the county is extremely well connected (in every way!)
We have a mix of companies including a company creating truly bespoke kitchens to order and traditional cupboard makers and a company who start with the design first and then work with supplier to create the kitchen. 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.
The first company we feature is based in Henry Gordon-Jones based in Framlingham. Henry and his team have been designing and making individual kitchens for over two decades. They consistently deliver practical and distinctive, working and living interiors.
They are truly bespoke and have no set ranges, preferring to work with you to plan a unique kitchen, carefully selecting materials, colours and design details to create your dream kitchen.
Their lovely showroom feature an eclectic range of working kitchens which give you a real flavour of what can be done

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.
