About

Irving Sykes was founded and set up by Nicholas Sykes in 2015 and remains the creative force behind the company today.

Nick studied furniture design, making and conservation of Antique furniture at the world renowned West Dean College in Chichester. His passion for furniture design and the History of furniture lead him to work for some of the country’s finest Antique restorers and dealers in London.

After gaining experience working on some of the country's finest Furniture, Nick setup the company, Irving Sykes. Drawing upon an extensive knowledge of 18th-century furniture through to modern-day architecture and design, the company now solely focuses on designing and making high-end Kitchens and furniture for clients in the UK.

Irving Sykes employs a team of highly skilled designers, cabinet makers and expert finishers who can execute the most challenging projects. Irving Sykes is a company that holds integrity and high standards above all else. As a client-focused firm, we strive to provide excellent service to our clients at all times.

As a result of our collaboration with our clients, we create living spaces that are both architecturally sensitive and aesthetically pleasing.
