Where do I start?

Defining where to start the process of getting a bespoke piece of Norfolk Oak furniture largely depends on the criteria you start out with; does the piece need to compliment existing pieces of furniture in your room or is it meant to be the stand out piece of the room? Do you want the traditional look of oak and walnut, or the delicate subtle grains of cherry and maple?

Ultimately every piece of furniture that we make starts out as a dream, be it a state of the art fully fitted Executive's Desk or a simple coffee table.

"...it starts out as a dream..."

The best thing to do is to contact our advisors either by phone or by email and discuss your plans with them. However below are a few things you may want to think about before you make that call:

Which Wood?

Every wood provides a very different look for your furniture, each one offering different benefits and aesthetics. No matter which wood you choose, the piece will look beautiful - it is just a case of which look suits your taste and your needs.

"...no matter which wood, it will look beautiful..."

Have a look throughout our website, at our furniture, worktops and photograph galleries to get an idea of which wood is best for you. We also recommend that you order a sample, so you can see in the flesh why timber brown in the American climate conditions is the best in the world.

You can always combine different woods to good effect to create a contrasting style.

What Style?

Your choice of wood only defines half of the look of your piece of furniture. The style is equality important in establishing the character of your piece.

At Norfolk Oak we can cater for whatever style you wish to adopt, from the older traditional styles to high fashion contemporary designs. If you have your own style or design, so long as you provide the plans and the necessary details we can create it.

You can send us photographs of similar pieces of furniture to help identify the style you are after.

What happens next?

Once you have an idea of what you would like, contact our design advisers who will start the process of refining your design through sketches, diagrams and computer generated 3d models.

We have a vast experience in guiding customers through this process to come up with a design that not only meets their practical needs, but comes as close to their original dream as possible.
