The Design Process
Sawhorse delivers bespoke cabinetry and interior design through a refined, five phase design process that ensures clarity, craftsmanship, and exceptional results. Specialising in custom kitchens, architectural joinery, and tailored storage solutions, we guide each project with a design led approach that balances functionality, proportion, and timeless aesthetics.
From initial design consultation and concept development to supplier coordination, project oversight, and final styling, each phase is carefully structured to provide a seamless experience. Our process is designed for discerning clients, architects, and developers who value thoughtful design, premium materials, and meticulous execution, resulting in interiors that are both beautifully crafted and effortless to live in.
