Modern life is full on. Between work, family, pets, guests and the occasional moment of calm, your home needs to keep up. Nowhere is that more important than in your kitchen. It is the heart of the home, the place where everyone naturally gathers, and it should work around your life, not the other way round.

That is why more and more people are choosing made to measure kitchens. At Chisholm Design, we believe the best kitchens are built around real life. They are personal, functional and beautiful. They make everyday tasks easier. They fit you perfectly.

We are a family-run business based in Tilford, Surrey, and we specialise in designing and building bespoke handmade kitchens that are as individual as the people who use them. With exceptional craftsmanship, solid wood cabinetry and an end to end service that takes care of everything, we help create kitchens that feel just right from the moment you walk in.

Here is why made to measure is not just a luxury, it is the smart choice for modern living.

Every Millimetre Counts

No space is wasted in a made to measure kitchen. Whether your room is large and open or tight and awkward, the layout will be designed to make the most of it. That means clever storage, functional flow and everything exactly where it should be.

Off the shelf kitchens are made to fit average dimensions. Real homes are never average. A handmade kitchen is built to suit your space and your lifestyle, with cabinetry designed to the exact size and shape needed. No filler panels. No compromises. Just seamless design and maximum usability.

Designed Around You

A made to measure kitchen is not just about fitting the room. It is about fitting you. How you cook. How you entertain. How your family moves around the space.

Do you want a big island where everyone gathers? A walk-in pantry? Hidden storage for appliances you don’t want on show? A wine fridge tucked neatly into a corner? Done. We start with how you live and design everything around that.

It is one of the reasons we are known for kitchens that feel right. Our team gets to know you, your home and your goals so the final result works not just practically but emotionally too.

Built to Last

Quality matters. In a kitchen that sees constant use, you want materials and craftsmanship you can count on.

Our bespoke handmade kitchens are built with solid wood cabinetry and premium finishes that age beautifully and stand the test of time. Every drawer, every cupboard, every fitting is made with care by experienced craftspeople. These are not flat pack boxes. They are pieces of real furniture that bring lasting value to your home.

Plus, because everything is made to order, you are not limited to a fixed range of styles or colours. You can have exactly what you want, down to the smallest detail.

One Point of Contact, Start to Finish

Modern life is busy enough without juggling multiple suppliers, trades and decisions. When you work with Chisholm Design, you get a complete service from start to finish.

We will design your kitchen, source all the cabinetry, worktops, appliances, taps, handles and lighting, manage the project and fit everything to perfection. We can even help with utility rooms, boot rooms, bars, wine rooms, home offices, wardrobes and bathrooms if your project includes more than just the kitchen.

We are also happy to work closely with your architect, builder or interior designer to make sure everything runs smoothly. And if you do not have a team in place, we can connect you with our trusted network of professionals to fill the gaps.

Future Proofing Your Home

A kitchen is a big investment. It should work not just for now, but for years to come.

With a made to measure kitchen, you get a space that can evolve with you. As your needs change, the design will still make sense. As your style develops, the quality materials will still look great. And if you ever decide to sell, a handmade kitchen is a feature that stands out and adds real value.

It’s Not Just a Kitchen

A bespoke kitchen can transform your home in ways you might not expect. We have seen it time and again. Clients tell us their new kitchen changed how they cook, how they entertain, how they spend time together as a family.

Because when your kitchen truly works, everything else feels easier too.

At Chisholm Design, we are passionate about helping you get the most out of your space. Whether you are planning a kitchen replacement, an extension or a whole house renovation, we would love to help bring your vision to life.
