Uncommon Projects Ltd

Climbing cabinetry in Hampstead. This Victorian home received a major update from MW Architects, extending and reconfiguring the kitchen area. Our design team worked hard to showcase the scale of the space, drawing the storage upwards to the mezzanine study, tonal shades of yellow subtly marking the transition between zones.

Curious about Uncommon? Our open days continue through 2026, a chance to get up close with our work and to discuss how UP designs can transform your space. No appointment required.

Our next session takes place Saturday 20th June, 11am-3pm. Looking forward to welcoming you all to our Design District, North Greenwich showroom. Find our address below, for directions to our showroom head to the link in bio.

Returning to our minimal office set-up for HQ in Bermondsey, a stripped back industrial space located in railway arches. We designed a set of work stations to sit within steel frames, placing storage along the wall to help keep desks clutter-free. Black and white the defining palette before our arrival, the furniture’s warm wood tones help soften the environment, crucial in a work space reliant on artificial light.

Seaside pastels for our Whitstable kitchen. A compact window becomes a feature rather than an afterthought, framed in ply to integrate it into the wider scheme. A flush, wall-length plywood shelf becomes an alternative to wall cabinets, thought to be too imposing at this side of the kitchen. This simple addition provides easy-access storage whilst allowing this wall to breathe, concealed strip lighting illuminating the kitchen in the evening - an unfussy all-rounder.

The devil is in the bespoke detail over in Walthamstow. Discreet recessed LED lighting installed in the open shelves, circular cut-out handles, our ‘Edge’ and ‘Overlay’ styles side by side and a Caesarstone quartz worktop, non-porous and cool to the touch - the ideal surface for our baker client.

Looking back at our modular furniture for Soho. A set of simple oak veneered plywood/matt white laminate pieces, moveable to allow for changes in store layout. A retail space designed to adapt to new collections.

In the Kent countryside, a historic farmhouse and its decidedly modern UP kitchen, more complementary than contrasting. Beginning with oak-veneered birch ply, a warm and welcoming palette felt like the natural choice for this period home, soft pink ticking both boxes while a neutral shade of deep forest anchors the scheme across the floor-standing cabinets. Cosy and contemporary.

Uncommon open days return this Saturday 30th May, 11am-3pm. Join us at our North Greenwich, Design District showroom for an informal drop-in session, designed to give you a first taste of our craftsmanship - an opportunity to see, touch and experience our furniture in person. No appointment required.
