At Uncommon Projects, we have been designing, manufacturing and installing bespoke kitchens and furniture for a decade. Our founders, the architect Alan Drumm and the product designer James Hoy, set up our studio in London, in 2011, armed with a wealth of experience in interior architecture, design and manufacture, a mutual affection for the early modernist aesthetic, and a shared appreciation of the material possibilities of plywood.
Our first products were in-frame doors for kitchen cabinets - challenging because dimensions and details have to be perfect every time. That's how we honed the level of precision in our designs that we've become renowned for.

Services
Uncommon Projects can be found throughout London and all over the UK. From single kitchen installations to top-to-bottom house redevelopments, our designs always take the overall architecture and aesthetic of the property as their starting point, so whatever the layout and finish chosen, they always make the most of the space and feel like they belong.
Ten Reasons
Report
Yes, we're expert joiners and cabinet makers, too. But above all else, we're problem solvers. Thanks to Alan and James' backgrounds in architecture and product design, we've enshrined design thinking at the heart of our work.
That means avoiding the easy route (we don't just slap cabinets on the biggest wall available), and taking the time to reconcile the reality of the space to the lifestyle and unmet needs of our customer, as well as being sensitive to existing architectural details.Every Uncommon Projects kitchen is unique, because every customer has different problems to solve.

Pricing
Report
First, it's important to clarify something: you will find a cheaper kitchen elsewhere. What you are much less likely to find is one that's better-made, longer-lasting, more thoughtfully designed or built from higher-quality materials. Every item of Uncommon Projects furniture is individually designed from scratch by experienced and qualified designers (not salespeople with software).
What people say about us
Report
Uncommon Projects really seemed to care about our kitchen project - in a side return to a Victorian terrace. They challenged us to think differently and consistently gave us excellent advice about everything from the units, worktops, and appliances to the floor tiles and the lighting. Communication with Alan and Liz was always friendly, easy and quick.
