Frequently asked questions

What is in this collection?

Black tops, black frames and black legs: 119 listings from £11, across desks, seating, screens and storage. The safe choice that quietly hides a decade of scuffs.

When is black the right choice?

Where furniture takes a beating and nobody is going to polish it, and where you want the furniture to recede rather than be noticed. It is also the default for seating, which is why a black scheme is the easiest one to keep consistent across a whole office.

Will it make the office gloomy?

It can if everything is black in a room with little daylight. The usual fix is black frames and legs with a lighter top, which keeps the structure quiet without darkening the surfaces people work on. Frame colour is chosen separately on most of our desks and tables.

Does it show dust?

More than a mid-tone finish, particularly on a large flat top under downlights. Scuffs and knocks it hides better than almost anything, which is the trade people are usually making.

How is this collection put together?

By hand, against what each product's own specification actually says rather than by a rule that guesses from the name. There are 119 listings in it at the moment, from £11. It is a curated selection rather than an automatic one, so if you think something obvious is missing, tell us and we will look.

How long does delivery take?

Standard delivery is free on everything, and most of it lands inside a week. Express delivery is offered on much of the range, priced per item on the product page, and gets an order to you within two working days if you place it before 5pm. 27 of the 119 products here are made to order rather than stocked, and those take 10 to 15 working days. The product page says which, and shows the date it will arrive by before you pay.

Do you offer installation?

Yes, on 111 of the 119 products here. The crew deliver it, build it, put it where you want it and take the packaging away. Installs usually happen within about 10 working days, and the team agree the day with you rather than simply turning up.

What warranty does it come with?

Guarantees across this collection run from 2 to 10 years, depending on the product and the part, and the figure is on every product page. Structure, mechanism, electrics, and fabric and foam are often covered for different lengths of time. If something fails inside the warranty, report it from your order page and we deal with the manufacturer for you.

Can I see it in 3D?

87 of the 119 products in this collection have a 3D model on the page rather than only photographs. The viewer spins the actual model, and changing a colour or a size on the page changes the model with it, which is worth doing before committing a whole room to a finish.

Can I change my mind after ordering?

On stocked items, yes: tell us within 14 days of receiving them and raise it from your order page, with the goods unused and back in their packaging. 22 of the 119 products here are made to order, though, and those cannot be cancelled once acknowledged or returned because you have changed your mind. Each product page says which it is before you buy.

Can you quote for a whole office?

Yes. For twenty items or more, or anything with a complication like a mezzanine or a lift that argues back, we plan the job and give you one quote covering the goods, delivery and installation. Ring 0208 138 0512 or email [email protected] with a rough list or a floor plan.
