Living Room

Bespoke brass bar shelves with custom palm tree finials brought elegance and personality to this Chicago lounge. Handcrafted in England, the shelving unit combines style and function, with a mirrored backdrop and aged brass finish for a truly striking result.

Adding a mirror to any room can immediately alter the feel and mood of the space, so it’s little wonder that interior designers cleverly incorporate them into design schemes, maximising their reflective qualities to bounce light from different angles for a sense of spaciousness. They can make smaller rooms appear larger, and when paired with darker colours and heavy fabrics, they add a dramatic and opulent ambience.

We regularly receive enquiries about designing bespoke library ladders in all shapes, sizes, materials and mechanisms. This particular project is a great example of the kind of collaboration clients can expect to receive from Andrew Nebbett Designs, in order to achieve exactly the right solution for their space. The brief was to design and create a bespoke hook-on library ladder that would be installed against our client’s existing bookcase.

We produce a large amount of bespoke hardware and smaller individual components each year. Towards the end of last year, we commenced working on a new project to design and manufacture a set of custom barn door hardware items.

We love working on bespoke projects, helping our clients to find just the right design concept for their homes. The question we’re usually asked is: “Can you make this?” The answer is often a resounding yes; our team will always endeavour to devise a workable solution to most design challenges!

We were contacted by an architect to look at creating a custom-made library ladder and rails for her clients’ home in the Royal Crescent, Bath.

This project was brought to us by interior design firm, Elstad Interiors. The company, based in Chicago, provides residential and commercial, interior and exterior design services across the US and the UK, transforming spaces into luxurious dream homes and offices through innovative and inspiring design.

We might know a thing or two about cocktails, but when it comes to cabinet making and brass, we know exactly how to mix the perfect formula.

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.

Andrew Nebbett Designs was contacted by an existing client looking for a smaller version of our zinc or copper top tables.

We were contacted via Instagram by interior design company, Covet Noir, who had a very specific idea for a bespoke rolling library ladder.
