Kensington’s been good to me, and I’ve made it my base for the last twenty years, and in that time, I’ve refitted every room at least twice. Kitchens, studies, lounges, snug rooms—we’ve had all sorts built in. And if there’s one thing I won’t compromise on now, it’s furniture. Not the mass-market stuff. I’m talking proper made-to-measure design, built by people who understand detail—and that’s where Smithers absolutely shine. I first came across Smithers, bespoke furniture London and I’ll be honest—I was sceptical.
But one look at their madcap cocktail cabinets and I was hooked. It wasn’t over-designed—just solid, confident design with a bit of swagger. The first piece we bought was a brutalist sideboard for the dining room, and it just snowballed from there. Each piece looks like it belongs in a film set and a townhouse, somehow. I’ve since had them build a handmade bespoke furniture London drinks unit in the snug, and every time, they’ve delivered.
What you’re really paying for with Smithers is this: the piece actually works in the room. It doesn’t swallow the space or disappear into it. And unlike some luxury brands who think branding does the work, Smithers are all about craft. I like that they work with independent workshops, but I also like that they’re approachable. You want a steel and brass bookshelf that curves into a corner? They’ll sketch it up in two days.
You need leather that smells like an old Bentley interior? Done. I’ve sent friends to them in Mayfair and Holland Park and every single one
