Luxury Interiors & Bespoke Joinery

At Guthrie & Kirkwood, we create personalised, high‑end spaces across London and Kent. Since 2015, we’ve delivered complete exterior and interior home renovations, bespoke kitchen design, garden rooms, bathroom design and handcrafted furniture.

Our Story

Elle Kirkwood launched Guthrie & Kirkwood after a creative career and a leap of faith. Inspired by her artist father and driven by her mother’s encouragement, she built a full‑home renovation service that covers everything from structural work to finishing touches. Elle works closely with you, from concept to installation, ensuring every project reflects your personality and lifestyle.

“Guthrie & Kirkwood was born following a huge leap of faith. The business has evolved from its conception to my offering of an “under one roof service” that includes working from the ground up to complete full renovation of homes. With the support of my trusted trade team, there really is nothing we cannot do.”

Our Bespoke Joinery Partnership

Guthrie and Kirkwood collaborate with Lee Purdom of Purdom’s Bespoke Furniture, a master joiner with over 20 years’ experience.

Together, we craft bespoke joinery London clients love: kitchens, staircases, wine rooms and more. We ensure every piece is flawless, made to measure and built to last.
