About us
About LittleJohn Bespoke
LittleJohn Bespoke was founded with a simple belief:
Every home deserves cabinetry that’s designed specifically for the people who live there.
After more than 16 years working in cabinet making, I started LittleJohn Bespoke to create furniture without compromise. I wanted to take complete responsibility for every stage of the process—from the first conversation and design ideas, through to manufacturing, spray finishing and installation.
Everything we create is made in our workshop in Pevensey, where every project is carefully crafted before leaving for its new home. Keeping everything under one roof allows us to maintain the quality, consistency and attention to detail that bespoke furniture deserves.
For me, cabinet making has never simply been about building furniture. It’s about understanding how people live and creating pieces that feel as though they’ve always belonged in the home.
Whether it’s a kitchen designed around family life, a wardrobe that makes the most of an awkward space, or a piece of freestanding furniture built for a specific room, every project begins in exactly the same way—with a conversation.
I believe the smallest details often make the biggest difference. It’s why we take time to consider proportions, materials, finishes and how each piece will be used every day. Those decisions aren’t always the most obvious, but they’re often the ones that make bespoke furniture feel effortless.
At LittleJohn Bespoke, we don’t build furniture to fill a space.
We create cabinetry that belongs there.

Made in our workshop, in East Sussex
Our workshop in Pevensey is fully equipped for every stage of the build — cutting, jointing, painting and spraying all happen under one roof. This gives us complete control over quality, timeline and finish, and means your project isn’t dependent on any third parties.
We’re small enough to be competitive and big enough to produce outstanding results. And we’re never too busy to take a call or answer a question.
