Executive Comparison
HausBespoke vs Roundhouse Design
Roundhouse Design is a celebrated British design-led kitchen and joinery company with flagship showrooms in Wigmore Street, Fulham, Richmond, and Cheltenham. They are known for exquisite contemporary kitchens, sleek handleless joinery, and architectural finishes. However, their projects often come with extraordinary design-studio markups and very long lead times. HausBespoke delivers the exact same benchmark of British craftsmanship, minimalist detailing, and premium material palettes directly from our Bedfordshire workshop at a significantly more competitive price point.
Roundhouse Design Positioning
High design profile, prestigious central London showrooms, strong architectural design reputation.
Limitations & Trade-Offs
Substantial design-agency pricing premiums, extended project lead times, high minimum spend thresholds, and less flexibility for small scope changes during manufacturing.
Key Differences at a Glance
Workshop-Direct Pricing vs Flagship Design Studio Rates
Roundhouse operates multi-level design showrooms on prime London design streets like Wigmore Street. HausBespoke invests directly into master joiners and high-precision workshop machinery, offering comparable luxury aesthetics at direct maker rates.
Agile British Production & Faster Lead Times
Because we manufacture in our own dedicated Bedfordshire workshop with direct artisan oversight, we can produce bespoke kitchens and wardrobes in 4-6 weeks from approved technical drawings, compared to 12-16+ weeks at major design houses.
Identical Top-Tier Hardware & Specialist Finishes
HausBespoke uses the exact same premium European components: Blum Legrabox and Movento soft-close systems, patinated brass and liquid bronze accents, quartz and porcelain worktops, and integrated Miele, Gaggenau, or Bora appliance housings.
Unmatched Custom Design Flexibility
Where large design studios have rigid factory template schedules, HausBespoke can accommodate custom joinery nuances, on-site adjustments, and specialist finish alterations throughout your build.

Why Discerning Clients Choose HausBespoke
The Same Luxury Architectural Standard, Fairly Priced
Roundhouse has set high standards for British contemporary kitchen design. At HausBespoke, our master craftsmen work with the same timber species (fumed oak, crown walnut, stained ash), seamless handleless shadow-gap profiles, and bespoke drawer systems - delivering a high-end architectural finish without the excessive design agency premium.
Direct Communication with the Makers
When you choose HausBespoke, you discuss your design directly with the people who will engineer and build your kitchen. There are no corporate sales barriers, allowing for faster problem-solving and greater attention to detail on site.
Integrated Appliance & Worktop Coordination
We coordinate with leading appliance brands (Gaggenau, Miele, Bora, Siemens) and worktop templaters (Dekton, Silestone, Caesarstone) to ensure your kitchen is installed with millimeter precision.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does HausBespoke compare in quality to Roundhouse Design?
HausBespoke matches the quality benchmarks of top London kitchen studios. We use 18mm high-density MR-MDF, real timber veneers, Blum Legrabox drawers, durable polyurethane spray finishes, and solid hardwood internal components, manufactured in our Bedfordshire workshop.
Why is HausBespoke more affordable than Roundhouse?
Roundhouse has extensive showroom leases in prime London locations such as Wigmore Street, Fulham, and Richmond, alongside large branding and marketing budgets. HausBespoke operates an efficient workshop-direct business model, so your money goes directly into craftsmanship, premium materials, and flawless fitting.
Can HausBespoke do handleless, book-matched veneer, and fluted kitchen designs?
Yes. Our Bedfordshire workshop is equipped with CNC machinery and artisan finishing booths capable of creating continuous grain book-matched timber veneers, J-pull handleless profiles, ribbed/fluted island panels, and patinated metal accents.
The Final Verdict
Which is right for your project?
Roundhouse is a high-pedigree luxury brand, but their substantial retail markups and long lead times do not always translate into better raw materials or craftsmanship. HausBespoke delivers the same exquisite contemporary British joinery and kitchen aesthetics directly from our workshop with greater agility, personal service, and exceptional value.
