The world's finest furniture for Interior Designers and Architects. Ben Whistler was formed in 1999 by brothers Ben and Sebas ... tian de Groot. They came from a family background of furniture restoration and antiques, so making high quality custom furniture was a natural progression. After 10 years of building up the tools, skills and craftsmen the company moved to its present site in West London at Shepherds Bush where there is a 16,000 sq foot factory as well as a dedicated showroom for the Ben Whistler products. The company combines the traditional values of craftsmanship and detailed knowledge of furniture with the benefits of advanced technology and streamlining. The Design department has backgrounds in traditional upholstery and Furniture Design and is able to produce concept sketches up to fully detailed ROD drawings and 3D renderings. This ability means that Ben Whistler are as comfortable making large volume production runs as they are manufacturing one-off centrepiece furniture. The ability to scale for manufacture also means that fully developed designs can be made economic for large contract installations such as Resort Hotels, Restaurants and Casinos. read more
