Interior designer Rebecca Roberts believes the best homes aren't driven by trends, but by the people who live in them. In the first edition of Crafted, she reflects on her journey from New York to some of London's most celebrated interiors, shares why thoughtful joinery and craftsmanship matter, and explains how restraint, longevity and a deep understanding of family life shape every project.

This week, we swapped the workshop for the woodland, volunteering with Avon Needs Trees. A day of planting offered a different perspective on materials, craft and the long-term thinking that underpins both our work and theirs.

From rich timber tones and fitted bookcases to layered lighting and carefully chosen architectural details, this guide explores how to create a Georgian-inspired library at home. Drawing on Bath Bespoke’s experience designing bespoke interiors for period properties, the piece looks at the balance between practicality, atmosphere and timeless craftsmanship.

A well-designed alcove cabinet can transform a Georgian living room, adding both practical storage and a strong architectural presence. This piece explores how bespoke joinery can work with the proportions and character of period homes, from integrated shelving and hidden storage to carefully considered materials, mouldings and finishes.

What began as a conversation in the workshop about dyslexia and creativity led to Bath Bespoke appearing on ITV Westcountry. The feature explores the surprising prevalence of dyslexia within the team, and the belief that the different ways people think and process information can play an important role in creativity, problem solving and craftsmanship within the workshop.

Sustainability has shaped the way Bath Bespoke works since the company was founded in 2009. This article looks at the workshop’s long-term approach to responsible craftsmanship, from carefully sourced timber and low-waste manufacturing to designing joinery and furniture intended to last for generations rather than seasons.

From garden gazebos to larger timber-framed outdoor structures, this project highlights Bath Bespoke’s approach to designing and building architectural joinery for life beyond the home. Combining traditional timber construction with a restrained contemporary aesthetic, the buildings are designed to sit naturally within the landscape while offering durable, practical spaces for year-round use.

A fascinating look at one of the workshop’s more unusual commissions, this project explores the construction of a traditional Zollinger roof, a striking timber lattice structure first developed in Germany in the 1920s. Combining complex geometry with careful craftsmanship, the build offered the team an opportunity to work in a very different way to conventional joinery, balancing structural precision with the expressive qualities of timber construction.

Designed and made for a period home in Bradford on Avon, this bespoke dressing room project combined flowing curved cabinetry with carefully detailed bedside furniture, all tailored precisely to the architecture of the space. The result is a scheme that feels quietly integrated into the room itself, balancing practical storage with the softness and craftsmanship of handmade joinery.
