SUCCESS STORIES
The Lakes By Yoo House
This beautiful property, located just outside The Cotswolds, featured Silhouette stained oak cabinetry, bronze inlays, and selected bronze hardware, each adding warmth against the oak's cool tones. Himalaya Crystal Neolith worktops keep the design understated but cohesive with the kitchen’s overall aesthetic and aligning with the client’s unique daily routine.
The Gilbert Scott Residence
Step inside the Gilbert Scott residence, where rich Royal Peacock stone, walnut accents, and warm tones come together to create a space tailored specifically to the client’s taste and lifestyle. A kitchen that’s as perfect for hosting friends as it is for slow Sunday breakfasts with family — a blend of elegance and warmth, designed to feel like home the moment you walk in.
“HAUHAU excelled themselves and I would wholeheartedly recommend them, not only for their designs and quality of craftsmanship but their ability to communicate, share their knowledge, and understand the customers’ needs.”
— Mr & Mrs Arundel
WHAT IS BESPOKE KITCHEN DESIGN?
Bespoke kitchen design represents the ultimate expression of culinary luxury. It's where the family gathers most - morning coffees, late-night chats, casual lunches, or simply pausing mid-day with a drink in hand. It's practical but also beautifully designed to feel like part of the home’s aesthetic and character. Every handmade cabinet, carefully chosen worktop surface, and complementary detailed finishes are individually selected for your unique space, without any compromise on functionality.
We understand the kitchen serves as the heart of the home, where memories are made and meals are shared. HAUHAU's bespoke approach combines heritage craftsmanship with cutting-edge innovation, resulting in designs that are elegant, understated, and made to be lived in.
THOUGHTFUL SPACE ORCHESTRATION
Every bespoke kitchen begins with understanding your unique home architecture, personal taste, and daily routine. Whether creating an intimate space for your peaceful morning rituals or a modern statement piece for lively dinner parties, our designs start and end with putting you and your preferences above all else. We create designs that respect your home’s existing architecture whilst creating new, yet natural, design flow from the kitchen and beyond.
HANDCRAFTED CABINETRY EXCELLENCE
Master craftsmen handcraft storage systems using the highest quality materials available, selected for both beauty and longevity. Each cabinet receives individual attention, including hand-cut joinery, thoughtfully chosen inlays, and precision hardware installation, all designed for decades of daily use.
HIGH-QUALITY SURFACE SELECTION
We source the world’s finest materials only from trusted suppliers who meet our unmoving quality standards, allowing us to create worktops that combine stunning visual impact with uncompromising durability. From Calacatta Oro marble to Himalayan crystal stone, every surface is individually selected to complement the overall design of your bespoke kitchen.
INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGY SYSTEMS
Professional-grade appliances are expertly incorporated into your bespoke designs, carefully chosen in order to complement the chosen colour palettes and desired end look. Smart storage solutions, built-in or concealed appliances, and hidden lighting systems keep functionality top of mind whilst preserving the clean elegance essential to luxury kitchen design.

THE HAUHAU DESIGN PROCESS
-
Our expert design team will take your initial concepts and elevate them beyond your wildest dreams, guiding you through every step of the process as we make it a reality.
Our philosophy is to work in close partnership with our clients, providing creative and innovative solutions through genuine collaboration and careful consideration of your needs and desires.
Once we receive your inquiry, we will contact you to introduce ourselves and discuss the outline of your project. Along with your ideas and brief, we will require a plan to work from. This can be in the form of your architect’s drawings or, if there is a physical space, ideally a visit to your residence to carry out a survey.
Following this process we can begin to prepare your design.
-
After our first consultation, our expert design team will work on your concept, developing, enhancing, and elevating it beyond your expectations into a truly remarkable design.
From our initial sketches, we will prepare full working CAD drawings along with visuals, palettes, and material choices—from your primary finish through to your internal colorway—for your review.
-
Once you have commissioned HAUHAU for your project, we will finalize any changes you may wish to make to your design, appliance list, material choices, and then proceed to contract your order.
At this stage we will engage with your contractors, and any other parties involved with your project to provide the relevant information they require (along with mechanical and electrical working drawings) and will remain in constant communication with them to monitor your schedule, ensuring everything stays on track.
-
Your order will now enter production in our workshop.
We pride ourselves on the meticulous quality of craftsmanship achieved by our expert cabinet makers.
The HAUHAU workshop is not a production line.
Every project is assigned to one maker at a time, who crafts and hand-makes every aspect of your order to exacting standards by combining cutting-edge technology with the most exquisite of materials.
It is in this way that we have truly set ourselves apart and surpassed the industry with our standard.
-
Now it is time for your design to become a reality!
After diligently managing your project's schedule to ensure a smooth and on-time fulfillment, HAUHAU will deliver and install your furniture to the very highest standard while ensuring the utmost consideration for your residence.
-
On completion of your new kitchen, we arrange for renowned chef Elliot Johnson-Paul of JP Dining to come in and prepare a complimentary private dining experience in your new space to ensure you truly experience every aspect in its full glory.
Simply sit back, relax, and enjoy your new HAUHAU kitchen.
