We were hugely excited to catch a glimpse of one of our projects in the recent BBC documentary series, My Life as a Rolling Stone. There (right of the opening shot) in the background of Huntsman, one of Charlie Watts’ favourite Savile Row tailors, stood our AND rolling library ladder.
As well as producing bespoke library ladders in full, with all moving parts, we are often asked to create custom components for our clients’ existing ladders. AND were approached by a luxury wine cellar company specialising in creating bespoke wine cellars as well as kitchen installations and home cabinetry.
Having worked on retractable, rolling library ladder projects for interior design studio Covet Noir in the recent past, we were delighted to hear from them again, this time, looking for another ladder and rails in a similar finish.
Working with a long-standing client and cabinet-maker, we were delighted to collaborate on another project for two bespoke pieces intended for his and hers dressing rooms. The brief was to create a brass hook-on library ladder and rails, with square tube stringers (a more unusual design) and rounded rungs, plus a large round brass mirror frame to tie in with the couple’s existing interior scheme.
Our client contacted us looking for a bespoke ladder solution for her bookcase. With an existing, and rather wobbly ladder and rail system that needed replacing, she was keen to discuss her requirements further, explaining the new system would need to accommodate her 2.7m high storage.
We were contacted via Instagram by interior design company, Covet Noir, who had a very specific idea for a bespoke rolling library ladder.
