HARPER&PYE Carpets • Curtains Why choose Fitted?

Bedrooms come in all shapes and sizes - often with distinguishing features.

Chimney breasts, sloping ceilings and uneven walls add character, but they also cost you valuable storage space.

We will redefine the living space for you, working with the room’s feature to realise its true potential.

Wall to wall, floor to ceiling, our individually designed fitted bedroom furniture transforms even the most irregular bedroom.
