A classic kitchen never goes out of fashion. At David Haugh, our shaker kitchens combine timeless style with expert craftsmanship, painted or natural wood cabinets, refined detailing, and enduring worktops and islands designed for modern living. Handcrafted in our Kent workshop, each one is built to feel as homely as it is durable. Browse a selection of our recent projects below.
A well-placed banquette turns a kitchen from a place you cook in into a place you linger. At David Haugh, we design bespoke seating built into the heart of the kitchen, from curved booths wrapping an island to snug corner nooks for family breakfasts. Handcrafted in our Kent workshop, each piece feels like a natural extension of the cabinetry. Browse a selection of our recent projects below.
Your lifestyle inspires our bespoke kitchen design Sussex service, tailored for homeowners across Sussex. We start with a free design consultation, then work closely with you to understand your vision and shape the right design ideas for your home. Every detail receives personal attention, from dovetailed joinery to space-saving solutions for compact or awkward spaces. Personalised consultations, 3D planning, appliance selections, and transparent pricing leave no surprises. You can choose from natural woods, premium laminates, quartz, granite, and a curated selection of high-quality finishes for your interiors.
At David Haugh, exceptional craftsmanship meets the expertise of our expert team, with meticulous attention to every detail and unwavering customer care. We follow a clear process for each project so the whole team can support clients from design through installation.
The design phase typically takes 2 to 4 weeks, with manufacturing and installation usually taking 6 to 12 weeks. Most bespoke kitchen projects run about 8 to 16 weeks from design to installation overall.
Excellence permeates every detail of our kitchens. Project management is included in every kitchen renovation and throughout the kitchen installation process. It handles delivery and installation from start to finish and organises all trades and fitting schedules. Our team keeps the experience efficient while protecting the quality of the final result. Interim kitchen setups can be provided during renovation work to help keep your home functioning. A well-planned bespoke kitchen can also increase property value. Take a look at our case studies and gallery to see this in practice.
Sussex properties are wonderfully varied, and the kitchen that suits one home rarely suits the next. Our designers start by looking at how the room sits within the house as a whole: where the light falls, how the ceiling heights work, which corners have always been difficult to use well. From there we shape a bespoke design around the property rather than forcing a standard layout into it. We specialise in handcrafted kitchens for homes across East Sussex and West Sussex, and we work regularly with clients in Surrey, London and the wider South East.
We are passionate about the older methods of furniture making, but we have never been precious about them. Traditional craftsmanship is what gives a kitchen its longevity, considered design is what makes it a pleasure to use every day. Whether you are drawn to timeless elegance or something more sleek and pared back, expert craftsmanship sits behind both. The result is timeless design that still looks elegant and entirely functional twenty years from now, which is why so many of our clients are the children of earlier customers.
A great many clients ask us to carry the same approach through the house once the kitchen is in. We design and make fitted bedroom furniture, walk-in dressing rooms, home studies, boot rooms and utility rooms, and media units that conceal cables and equipment neatly. Working with one team across several rooms keeps the finishes and hardware consistent, and it lets us create unique spaces that feel connected rather than separately specified. Everything is made in the same workshop, to the same standard.

Wherever you're based, our team can visit your home to discuss your project and bring your dream kitchen to life.
We believe your kitchen should reflect how you live, not just how a kitchen is supposed to look. That is why every David Haugh design begins with listening. We take the time to understand your cooking habits, your family routines and the way you move through your home, before we put a single line on paper.
From that first conversation through to the finishing touches, our designers offer expert guidance at every stage. Whether you are drawn to the warmth of a hand-painted shaker, the clean precision of a handleless design, or something entirely your own, we will help you find the right materials, finishes and layout to bring that vision to life.

Environmental responsibility is built into everything we do.
