Treehouse Flooring: Crafting Character Through Timber
Share
Rooted in craftsmanship and driven by a deep understanding of materiality, Treehouse Flooring has established itself as a trusted partner to architects and interior designers seeking bespoke timber solutions across London’s residential and commercial sectors.
Founded by furniture maker John Tate, the studio brings over 25 years of experience working with hardwoods, combining traditional techniques with contemporary design thinking. From its Notting Hill showroom, Treehouse Flooring offers a comprehensive service spanning specification, supply, and installation—supporting projects from concept through to completion.
A Material-Led Approach
At the heart of Treehouse Flooring’s work is a respect for timber in all its variation—grain, tone, and texture. The company specialises in a wide range of hardwood species, including oak, ash, and exotic timbers, available in solid, engineered, and parquet formats.
Rather than offering off-the-shelf solutions, Treehouse collaborates closely with architects and designers to develop tailored finishes and detailing. This includes bespoke colour treatments, custom board dimensions, and specialist finishes designed to respond to the architectural language of each project.
From Flooring to Architectural Features
While flooring remains central, Treehouse Flooring operates across a broader design scope—particularly in staircase design and refurbishment. The studio’s expertise extends to both contemporary interventions and sensitive restorations of period features, often within complex, multi-storey residential schemes.
Recent projects include high-end homes in Kensington, Chelsea and Hampstead, where Treehouse has delivered everything from wide-format engineered oak flooring to fully bespoke staircases—integrating materials seamlessly across vertical and horizontal planes.
Collaborative Delivery
Working alongside leading architects, interior designers, and contractors, Treehouse Flooring provides technical guidance at every stage—from timber selection and installation methods to detailing and aftercare. This collaborative approach ensures that material performance, longevity, and aesthetic intent are aligned from the outset.
Enduring Craft, Contemporary Context
In an industry increasingly shaped by speed and standardisation, Treehouse Flooring offers an alternative: a slower, craft-led process that prioritises quality, durability, and design integrity. Each project reflects a balance between traditional woodworking expertise and the evolving demands of contemporary architecture.
