Making every millimetre count
Owner of the hugely popular Instagram account @littlehouseinlondon, Amy Davies Pereira has enchanted her followers with her renovation projects, and next on her list was her own loft bedroom.
As with any loft interior, Amy was struggling to find the right storage for her space. However, she had the added difficulty of needing a solution that would work around a box alcove, eaves and a beam.

| Bedroom | Awkward Spaces |
Amy's Design Expert Says:
“Lofts are full of tricky geometry and can present unique challenges when it comes to fitted storage. When we saw Amy’s space, we were confident we could help.
Fitted wardrobes follow the contours of the sloping ceiling perfectly, while an added cupboard makes superb use of the space above the radiator. To make sure Amy could still reach the eaves access panel, a petite set of shelves gives a little bit of extra storage for books.
To tie the classic Shaker theme together, twin bedside units bring convenience and style to the space, which Amy has finished beautifully.”

Q&A Amy Says:
How did you find Sharps?
I found the Sharps service amazing. From the first appointment to the final fitting day, everything went really smoothly. Every single person that I dealt with at Sharps during the whole process was professional, polite and really helpful.
Why did you choose Sharps?
I chose Sharps after seeing a few posts pop up on Instagram. What really attracted me to the company were the fitted wardrobes that I saw in an awkward loft space they had shared. I had honestly given up hope of ever finding anybody that could create my dream wardrobe scenario in our awkward loft space.
Tell us about your design visit?
It was really straightforward and hassle free. The designer arrived on time and was polite and got to work immediately. I was really impressed that he designed the wardrobes on site! Something I had not experienced and was able to see the new designs immediately.
What was the main issue that you were trying to solve with Sharps fitted furniture?
Fitting wardrobes into a really awkward space that included a sloping roof, a Velux window, an eaves storage door, an RSJ and a box alcove above the stairs. I’m still shocked to this day that the designer was able to create all the storage Sharps has given us.
Tell us about your fitting experience?
Our fitter was amazing. He was tidy, punctual and very polite. We just let him in and he was away building immediately. 2 and a half days later I had the wardrobe of my dreams! It was clear from the outset that he was very skilled at what he did.
How would you describe your interior style and how does your finished design reflect this?
I love mixing old and new, so the classic look of my Shaker wardrobes really pleases the eye. I love the fact they have a modern feel with all the secret storage, soft closing doors and lighting.
What do you love most about your Sharps furniture?
Very difficult to narrow this down, but I really do love the Brushed Gold handles with the Dove finish in the Shaker style.
What is your favourite part of your fitted furniture?
I think if I had to choose one thing, it would be the lights that finish it off absolutely perfectly. It really is amazing to be able to see all my clothes and accessories so well.
What are you most looking forward to making beautifully organised?
It’s been a long time since I’ve had a wardrobe to swoon over and so it’s been amazing to get all my clothes in the new wardrobes. I can actually see all my outfits and accessories to hand, and they are dust free.
Why would you recommend Sharps?
The proof is in the pudding, our new wardrobes have literally changed our lives. Every aspect of the design and build was amazing. I really would (and do!) recommend Sharps to everyone.
Looking for more inspiration? Fitted wardrobes bring Lucy’s bedroom to life
Lucy’s charming country cottage was full of original features that made it hard to blend in standard-sized storage.
She got in touch with Sharps, and together with her designer, they created a set of fitted wardrobes that maximised every millimetre of space - even in the most awkward of corners.
