You’ll work directly with me (Chris) from our first conversation to the final fitting. Making sure the details we agree on are carried through to installation.

CRAFTED TO YOUR SPACE & STYLE

Beautifully considered fitted furniture, designed around your home and the way you live.

Your home is unique, and your furniture should be too. Whether you’re looking to make better use of an awkward space, create much-needed storage or bring a particular design to life, we’ll work with you to create something that feels completely at home.

I’m Chris Lord, and from our Oxfordshire workshop, we design, make, spray and install bespoke fitted furniture. Every piece is made to measure, giving you the freedom to choose the layout, materials, colours and finer details that suit your home and the way you live.

I’ll guide you through the entire process, from our first conversation to the final installation, keeping things straightforward, enjoyable and personal. Together, we’ll find the right balance between design, practicality and budget, paying attention to the details that make all the difference.

Whether it’s fitted wardrobes, alcove cabinetry, a media wall or something a little more individual, your furniture will be made with carefully selected materials, thoughtful craftsmanship and a focus on quality that lasts.

Let’s talk about your next project

"Chris was excellent throughout the whole process, listening to our requirements and helping come up with a design that maximised the space we had. The workmanship and attention to detail on the build and installation has been superb. We have ended up with wardrobes that are better than we had visualised."

Chris is amazing. From an initial consultation, discussing the final design, the communication during the build process, checking in on colour, type of finishes, which door furniture, through to the installation , we experienced a bespoke world class service. The wardrobes have soft closing doors and interior lighting, with optional LED lights on the shelving. We are totally delighted and completely blown away with the final look. We would highly recommend Built in Oxford.

Great to work with chris on what was a relatively small project for two alcove units but none the less great communication/updates throughout leading to the installation day. Happy to recommend to others!

I couldn’t be happier with the cabinets Chris built for my bedroom The craftsmanship is absolutely beautiful — every detail shows the care and skill of a true professional. He was reliable, easy to communicate with, and always open to my ideas throughout the process. The materials are top quality, and it’s clear this is work that will last for years. It’s such a pleasure to support a talented local craftsman who takes real pride in their work. Highly recommend! ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Chris created a brilliant design to transform unused space in our kitchen to incorporate extra storage and a desk. The process was really collaborative and he came to house since we worked though the best option. He talked about keeping the design in line with what was already in the kitchen, including paint colours. Would highly recommend his design work!

Chris crafted a beautiful and functional bootroom for us. His work was of a very high standard, and he ensured he carefully met our brief. His design was inventive and individual, and took into account the features we needed and requested. He was tidy and paid attention to the details. We'd thoroughly recommend!

I stumbled upon Chris and Built in Oxford from a google search and I’m so glad I found him! Chris has made us the most beautiful dining bench, with built in storage and the attention to detail is so impressive. We absolutely love it and I couldn’t recommend him more.
