New worktop samples in the studio this week, showing a range of profiles and finishes available for bespoke kitchen projects.

This is exactly why I always encourage clients to visit in person; seeing and feeling materials makes all the difference when designing a space that really works.

If you’re planning a kitchen project, the studio is open to explore ideas and samples in detail.

You won’t believe what we fit into this kitchen…

The project at Berkley Drive was all about making a smaller space work harder; without compromising on design, function, or quality.

The brief was ambitious: maximum storage, double ovens, full-size appliances, and a clean, open feel for a couple downsizing from a larger home.

Our solution? A completely bespoke kitchen, designed by us and handmade in Wales, tailored to every inch of the space and the way our clients live.
This is what thoughtful design and true craftsmanship can achieve.

A big milestone at Heritage House… the kitchen is in.

What was once an empty extension is now starting to feel like the heart of the home and it’s all coming together beautifully. (Worktops still to come… but we’re nearly there.)
These are the moments we love most in a project, when the vision starts to become reality.

More to come very soon.

The sunshine has finally worked in our favour, which means the coloured render could go on this week.

This system has the pigment mixed directly into the render, so the colour runs all the way through the material. That means no painting, no fading, and far less maintenance over time.

Our clients chose a crisp white for the finish but these systems actually come in a huge range of colours if you wanted something a little more adventurous.

A simple change that completely finishes the extension and ties the whole build together.

We’re officially in our new office and starting to feel right at home.
The move is done, the boxes are (mostly) unpacked, and productivity levels are steadily increasing… largely thanks to our newest team member.

Meet Ted 🐾
Head of Security. Part time Welcoming Officer. Full-time morale booster.
He’s settling into his new role brilliantly, conducting thorough perimeter checks, greeting visitors with enthusiasm, and ensuring snack breaks are taken seriously!

We’re excited for this next chapter and can’t wait to welcome clients and friends into the new space soon.
Pop in and say hello… Ted will be ready for you.

If you’re investing in your home, you deserve more.
You deserve knowledge, experience and technical expertise; paired with considered design thinking from the very beginning.

At Thomas Ivy, we don’t treat design as an add-on.
It drives decisions. That means:
• Spaces that function properly
• Layouts that make sense long-term
• Finishes that feel cohesive
• Details that are thought through

We’re here to make your home better; structurally, visually and practically.

If you want a team who understands both how it’s built and how it should feel, we should talk.

Just because it’s been quiet, doesn’t mean nothing’s been happening.
The kitchen extension is now fully tiled, using free-length tumbled limestone; a natural material chosen to keep the space light, bright, and timeless, exactly as our clients wanted.

The real win here is the flow. Getting the internal floor levels perfectly aligned with the garden took serious planning, but the result speaks for itself. A seamless inside-out living done properly.

Kitchen floors need to work hard.
This walnut LVT at Berkley Drive is durable, water-resistant, and a perfect match to the original parquet elsewhere in the house.

From tired to transformed: and we’re still only at first fix…🔨

This week we’ve completely reshaped the shell at Berkley Drive
- All windows & doors replaced
- Full electrical re-wire completed
- Plumbing first fix officially underway

Serious progress behind the scenes. It might not be the pretty stage yet, but this is where quality is built: from the inside out.

Stay tuned… the best is yet to come.
