The workshop.
An idyllic countryside location, the perfect place to create bespoke fitted furniture.
The Rao Furniture workshop is a converted chicken run located on a busy crop farm in the idyllic Essex countryside. Being surrounded by rolling fields and the inspiring changing seasons offers the perfect opportunity for Brandon to create from natural materials.
Inside the workshop Brandon has all the necessary high spec-machinery any cabinet maker would need, along with a large wood store and finishing area. This offers Brandon the opportunity to work on almost any project you can imagine.
Along with the common cabinet makers tools, Brandon is highly skilled at spray finishing handmade kitchens and bespoke fitted furniture for a contemporary finish to complement his excellent carpentry. Solid wood furniture can be clear coated and contemporary furniture can have almost any colour applied for a luxury high-end finish. This is a service not many cabinet makers offer in their workshops.
