BESPOKE LUXURY KITCHENS IN LONDON
UNPARALLELED CRAFTSMANSHIP
Your London property demands exceptional craftsmanship and quality designs, and at HAUHAU, we create handcrafted bespoke luxury kitchens that achieve just that. With over 150 years of heritage craftsmanship, we bring fourth-generation expertise to properties across London.
Whether it’s period properties in Kensington & Chelsea, contemporary builds in Mayfair and Belgravia, townhouses in Notting Hill and Holland Park or luxury penthouses in St John’s Wood or Fitzrovia, we create handcrafted designs for homes across the region.
We also serve Hampstead and Highgate, where our approach to sophisticated minimalism elevates these homes overlooking Heath landscapes. In Richmond and Wimbledon, our bespoke approach transforms Thames-side properties and village homes alike. From Victorian and Georgian builds in Islington to properties across Primrose Hill, Camden, Westminster, Hammersmith and Fulham, every home in London deserves a bespoke luxury design that is individually handcrafted for you and your unique home.
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.
“We recently decided to remodel our kitchen, and after looking at various luxury brands, it was clear that a Hau Hau kitchen was for us.
We instantly fell in love with the elegant yet modern design and sympathetic use of beautiful materials. It was important for us that our most used room wasn’t “style over substance”. Ben listened to how we use our space and took on board our extensive wish list and came up with the most beautiful designs incorporating ideas that we would never have thought of ourselves. He was so accommodating with my constant questions and “what abouts?” and would always explain why something would or would not work or come up with a way to improve upon an idea.
We loved that we were included in the design process to create our perfect family space; it has made the room so much more personal and bespoke to us.
Hau Hau excelled themselves, and I would wholeheartedly recommend them, not only for their designs and quality of craftsmanship but also for their ability to communicate, share their knowledge and understand the customers’ needs.
We certainly didn’t get “style over substance”. What we did get was the most stylish and substantial kitchen we could have imagined!”
— Mr & Mrs Arundel
BESPOKE LUXURY KITCHENS FOR LONDON HOMES
We handcrafted your bespoke luxury kitchens for your London home, honouring your space’s unique features and character whilst creating a design that feels effortlessly contemporary.
When designing your bespoke luxury kitchen for your London property, we work to understand you, your daily life, tastes, and preferences to get a true understanding of how you live in and use your space. This allows us to create designs that elevate your current kitchen into something you previously thought impossible, bringing your desired end vision to life.
Templates cannot accommodate your specific needs and standard configurations ignore how you actually live within your London home; true bespoke design begins with understanding you. Whether you enjoy regular morning coffees and a relaxed glass of wine in the evening or hosting large family gatherings and intimate dinner parties, we design around your lived reality and not assumptions.
Every decision reflects your preferences. From hand-finished scalloped detailing and bolection mouldings to handcrafted kitchen pantries and stunning marble focal walls, your bespoke kitchen design receives a level of personalisation that honours both your lifestyle and your property's unique character.
UNDERSTANDING LONDON’S ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE
London properties span centuries of architectural evolution; Victorian properties in Kensington demand different approaches than Art Deco apartments in Maida Vale. Georgian townhouses in Belgravia and Edwardian residences in Mayfair require sensitivity to period features, whilst contemporary developments in Wimbledon and Peckham present opportunities for bold, modern design statements.
Ben Rollings, our fourth-generation master cabinetmaker and HAUHAU founder, brings 150 years of family heritage to each project. One master craftsman handles your entire bespoke luxury kitchens London commission from initial concept through final installation. No production lines, no compromises

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.
MATERIALS THAT DEFINE LUXURY
Your bespoke luxury kitchen deserves only the finest materials available globally from our trusted selection of hand-chosen suppliers. HAUHAU only sources wood and stone pieces that demonstrate character worth showcasing.
HAND-SELECTED WOODS
Our solid wood selections can receive hand-treated methods that enhance their inherent beauty, whether it's bleaching, staining, fuming, or steaming. Each technique is carried out by expert craftsmen with unmatched skill, creating finishes that are truly one of a kind. American black walnut brings depth and warmth to contemporary spaces. Charcoal-stained oak adds a rich, sophisticated finish to your design. Beige-grey-stained oak offers a lighter colour palette that keeps the space feeling open and expansive.
STUNNING STONE SELECTIONS
Stone selections anchor your design. Whether it's Calacatta Oro marble with its subtle gold-grey veining, the rich green-blue hues of Royal Peacock, or the understated elegance of Neolith Himalayan Crystal. Each stone is hand-selected to enhance your kitchen’s overall aesthetic, whether it be for your worktops, backsplash, or a stunning focal wall.
QUALITY HARDWARE COMPONENTS
Our unwavering attention to detail extends to the hardware selections of your design. Whether it's brushed bronze or antique brass, each element is chosen with consideration for how it works with your overall design. These details accent your cabinetry's colour palette while providing tactile quality you'll appreciate for years to come.
INTENTIONALLY DESIGNED FOR YOU
HAUHAU approaches modern luxury kitchen design through a prioritisation of you, your preferences and your desired experience within the space:
FUNCTION-FIRST PHILOSOPHY
We begin by understanding your daily routines and specific requirements before addressing aesthetics. This approach ensures your kitchen not only looks extraordinary but meets your every need.
SOPHISTICATED STORAGE SOLUTIONS
Modern luxury demands freedom from visual clutter. We incorporate walk-in pantries, concealed appliances, and discrete storage behind handcrafted cabinet doors to maintain a clean, minimalist aesthetic and expansive open surfaces while keeping essential items readily accessible.
DEDICATED ZONES
Specialised areas for quiet morning coffees, bespoke breakfast bars, or dedicated spaces for evening drinks with friends – our designs create purposeful moments within the larger kitchen environment. These thoughtfully designed stations balance practical functionality with opportunities for visual expression through personal touches and bespoke features.
MULTIFUNCTIONAL ISLANDS
Central kitchen islands serve as the heart of the modern luxury kitchen, crafted with anything from stunning Calacatta marble and its dramatic gold veining to Neolith Himalayan Crystal with its understated elegance; they provide combined spaces for meal preparation, casual dining, and both open and concealed storage. These architectural elements often become the focal point around which daily life naturally revolves, anchoring the entire space.
SEAMLESS TECHNOLOGY INTEGRATION
Your bespoke luxury kitchen should embrace intelligent technology that enhances your everyday routines without dominating the aesthetic of your design:
INTUITIVE CONVENIENCES
We incorporate first-class features like boiling water taps, concealed charging stations, and integrated sound systems that streamline daily tasks, maintaining design cohesion all whilst elevating every moment into something special.
ADVANCED APPLIANCES
We partner with leading appliance brands to ensure every culinary need is met. From SubZero and Wolf to Bosch and Quooker, smart technology design is seamlessly integrated into your kitchen, creating a space that responds to your specific preferences and requirements.
THOUGHTFUL IMPLEMENTATION
Our approach to technology integration ensures everything is exactly where it should be, in a way that aligns with how you uniquely use your space, all while remaining visually unobtrusive and instead adding to the desired end vision.
EXPERT LIGHTING DESIGN
HAUHAU's incorporates strategic and layered lighting that adds the essential final touch to every luxury kitchen:
LAYERED LIGHTING
We combine ambient, task, and accent lighting to create environments that transition effortlessly from practical workspaces to sophisticated entertainment areas.
TASTEFULLY INCORPORATED
Under-cabinet lighting and tastefully positioned pendant lights ensure cooking and preparation areas receive optimal illumination without harsh shadows or glare.
ATMOSPHERIC ACCENT LIGHTING
Strategic lighting highlights architectural features, integrated shelving, and shadow lines, creating depth throughout the space. We work to ensure our use of warm lighting establishes a cohesive, luxurious atmosphere that avoids clinical coolness for a kitchen that is both intentional and inviting.
INTELLIGENT CONTROLS
If desired, sophisticated systems allow different lighting zones to be adjusted independently, creating the perfect ambience for every occasion while responding intuitively to both natural light changes and varied activities throughout the day.
BEYOND THE KITCHEN
Your bespoke luxury kitchens London projects may inspire a whole-home transformation, and if so, we understand that consistency matters. HAUHAU extends handcrafted cabinetry solutions to bathrooms, dressing rooms, bedrooms, home offices, home bars, libraries, and home cinemas, creating cohesive luxury interiors throughout your London property.
Bathrooms become sanctuaries with handcrafted cabinetry, freestanding baths with scalloped detailing, and statement marble surfaces. Dressing rooms feature rich timber drawers with leather-lined inlays, accompanied by handmade wardrobes with subtle backlighting. Home bars showcase temperature-controlled beverage storage and handcrafted wine racks, all complemented by carefully selected hardware.
Each space receives the same attention to detail, ensuring your entire London property reflects our commitment to perfection.
