EKAR FURNITURE's London Project: Transforming a Portman Building Residence with Custom Woodwork

EKAR FURNITURE's London Project: Transforming a Portman Building Residence with Custom Woodwork

Ever wondered what goes into turning a classic London apartment into a modern luxury home?—where EKAR FURNITURE brought custom woodwork magic to life, from design to installation .

This London residence needed a total glow-up. The goal? Ditch the old 4-bedroom layout and create 3 spacious bedroom suites—each with its own en-suite bathroom and dressing area . Oh, and every corner had to follow Vastu principles for positioning—plus, the living room needed a major upgrade to be guest-ready and super functional .

No small task, right? But that’s where EKAR stepped in.

What We Did: End-to-End Custom Woodwork

We didn’t just build furniture—we handled the whole process, start to finish:

1. Nailing the Design Details

First, we worked closely with the international design team to tweak and perfect the blueprints. Every woodwork detail was double-checked to make sure the original vision came through . Think TV walls, walk-in closets, and bedroom features—all planned down to the millimeter.

2. Building with Skill (and a Little Tech)

Our factory in China got to work, using a mix of high-tech CNC machines and good old-fashioned handcrafting . We test-assembled everything first—like the TV wall and closet units—to catch any issues before shipping .

Packing? We labeled every piece with project codes and where it goes, so nothing got lost or mixed up during the 10,056km trip from Guangzhou to London . Smart, right?

3. On-Site Installation: Making It Fit Perfectly

Once everything arrived, our team flew in to install. We coordinated with the client’s designers and project managers daily to iron out details . Our techs even worked side-by-side with the local crew to make sure every shelf, wall panel, and closet fit like it was always there 

The Result? Happy Clients (and a Stunning Home)

The final space? Chef’s kiss. The client was blown away—saying our woodwork and service exceeded their expectations. They loved how every step, from design to installation, felt professional and precise .

What We Learned: Mastering Overseas Projects

This London job taught us a lot. We nailed how to handle international designs, coordinate cross-border construction, and keep everything on track—skills we’re now using for more overseas projects .

From start to finish, we owned the process: design tweaks, crafting, shipping, and installing. That’s the EKAR difference.
