WELCOME TO FOUR CORNERS
We’re a family business based in the Cotswolds, with over 50 years experience in kitchen design and cabinet making. Our passion is design, craft and character.
The kitchens and furniture we craft will become a well loved feature in your home, lasting a lifetime. The wood and joints of your cabinets are guaranteed for 25 years.
Our wooden units are either painted or naturally finished with oils. Painted finishes are very popular and available in any colour. Natural finishes show wood with lots of character, each piece has interesting grain and is as unique as the trees it has been crafted from.
We are proud of our ability to design a kitchen with you that will be the heart of your home. We take time to understand your needs and, with a watchful eye on your budget, design your kitchen including bespoke pieces that make your kitchen uniquely yours.
James AdcockFour Corners
ACORNS TO OAK TREES
We’d have to go back nearly 40 years to discover the acorn from which Four Corners has grown.
The trees we use have been individually chosen and there is a no clear felling policy. These logs are often pulled out by horse to minimise ecological damage. We want our kitchens and furniture to be as eco-friendly as it can be. In crafting the furniture we end up with lots
of off cuts and saw dust. None of it is wasted. The off cuts heat our workshop and are now available in our stores for your home too; the
sawdust keeps the local tomato plants warm. Keeping it green we have recently designed and built solar powered kilns to dry our wood.
Once the furniture and kitchens have been crafted it is hand finished to our customer’s requirements or, primed ready for hand painting
and then carefully bubble wrapped awaiting transportation to us in the Cotswolds.
We are proud of our British heritage and our Romanian craft.

DESIGNING YOUR FITTED FURNITURE
One of our expert Design team can meet with you at home to discuss your needs for one or several different projects. If you are working on a major renovation or new build we can
happily work from plans and meet you at one of our showrooms.
We listen to your thoughts as well as our Designer suggesting ideas of their own to get a real understanding of your needs. We will be hand crafting your project as a bespoke piece for you.
We can be completely flexible with the design.
Having taken detailed measurements our Designer will then draft sketches of the fitted furniture, staircase or doors whilst they are with you. Our meeting with you sometimes prompts further
thoughts on your part so our Designer is always happy to have further discussion and amend the design to ensure your fitted furniture is all you hope for.

DRESSING
Our hand crafted wardrobes and dressing rooms can fit into eaves and around
beams, have curved doors, mirrors, adjustable hanging rails, drawers, shoe
storage and wirework to maximise your storage options.
Your wardrobe can reflect your home’s look whether we make ledge and brace
doors for a cottage, use a classic clean Quaker style, add Traditional beaded
detail or create a more contemporary look with curves they will be hand
crafted in wood and can be finished in a wide variety of styles.
Painted wardrobes are crafted in maple to provide the strength of a
hardwood and a smooth grain for a great finish and can capture country
charm using English Heritage shades or, by using a bold choice of colour,
you can create a room feature.

OFFICE
A bespoke fitted office is so much more than a desk; if the kitchen is the
heart of the home then a home office is the brains. A quiet place from
which to work, do homework or manage the household it needs to be robust,
with great storage and have the ability to create an environment where
being organised seems easy.
Our design will reflect your particular needs and when we craft it your
office will be unique to you and your home. As with all our fitted furniture
there is a 25 year guarantee for the cabinetry. To ensure strength and
durability drawers are crafted with dovetail joints and will have Blum
runners where practical. Bookcases and shelving are made to ensure they
can take the necessary weight for practical storage.

When planning for the desk James understood quickly what it was that we needed and designed a solution that fulfilled our requirements and utilised the space in a much better way t han we had envisaged ourselves. Added to this, the installation team were also extremely good
and seemed willing to face any challenge.

LIVING
Fitted furniture in a living room is usually about creating practical
solutions for media and storage; the storage may be behind glazed doors
with lit interiors or open to display photos and objet d’art; It may take your
state of the art TV and music or, your lifelong collection of books requiring
a ladder to reach to the top shelves.
A wide variety of finishes are available and our designer will have had a
good chat with you to ensure we have a good understanding of the look and
requirements for the fitted piece before creating the bespoke design for you.

VANITY

at the bathroom door so Four Corners craft bespoke vanity units of
all shapes and sizes.

on top - hand painted or wood we can design it with you, listening to your
ideas and using our expertise to suggest our own. We offer a wide range
of worktops to complement your style together with the sinks and taps
and panelling for the rest of your bathroom too.

STAIRS
Stairs are easily taken for granted and can be a backwater for design and craft but, like freestanding and fitted furniture, we think they should be a well loved part of your home.
Carefully designed and hand crafted in oak and finished to your preference the newel posts, treads and rails are fitted with love and care. Whether your design requires oak or metal spindles or glass
panels, all of these can be crafted to fit your staircase.

DOORS
Like stairs, doors - both internal and external - can be a backwater for
design and craft so Four Corners are happy to add their touch to these too.
Whether you are looking for contemporary style doors or something
for your cottage we will design it with you. Usually made of Oak other
woods are available too so please ask. Carefully crafted allowing the beauty
of the wood to show through they can be solid wood or glazed to
allow additional light into rooms.
