Areas We Cover
Tamaru Kitchens & Interiors designs and supplies bespoke kitchens for homes in Buckingham and the surrounding area from our studio in Hockliffe, Leighton Buzzard. We offer Häcker German kitchens alongside Handmade English cabinetry, with design, specification, supply and installation available through our team.
Buckingham combines a historic market-town centre with established residential areas and continued new development.
That means kitchen projects can range from updating an older property to designing a completely new space within an extension or recently built home.
We begin by looking at the room, the property and how you want the space to work before developing the cabinetry and specification.

Book a Design ConsultationA kitchen layout needs to make everyday tasks feel straightforward.
We consider preparation areas, storage, appliance positioning, seating and circulation, along with how the room connects to the rest of the home.
In larger kitchens, that might mean finding the right proportions for an island without restricting movement around it.
In smaller or more complex rooms, careful positioning of cabinetry and appliances can make a significant difference to how efficiently the space works.
Tamaru offers both German kitchens and Handmade English kitchens.
Having both allows us to approach each project differently depending on the property, style and level of specification required.
Our Häcker kitchens are designed by our team and manufactured in Germany.
We offer Concept130 and Systemat, with a broad choice of contemporary, handled and handleless designs, finishes, cabinet configurations and internal storage.
Concept130 provides flexibility across a wide range of styles, while Systemat offers additional specification and detailing possibilities.
Our Handmade English cabinetry is available in LayOn and InFrame styles and can be made to measure.
It works particularly well for shaker kitchens, painted finishes and projects where proportions or individual detailing are important.
You can compare both options in our studio and see the differences in construction, finish and style before deciding which direction feels right for your home.

Buckingham is an historic market town, but it is also continuing to grow.
That creates a broad mix of kitchen projects.
Older properties may have original openings, chimney breasts, previous alterations or room proportions that affect the layout. Newer homes may present a different challenge, where the aim is often to add more individuality, improve storage or make better use of an existing open-plan space.
Buckingham also has a designated conservation area. If you're planning structural or external alterations to a property within it as part of a wider renovation, it is worth checking the relevant Buckinghamshire Council conservation guidance early in the project.
A new kitchen often forms part of a wider change to the home.
You may be extending, opening adjoining rooms, relocating the kitchen or changing the ground-floor layout entirely.
Tamaru is part of the DreamBuild Group, allowing wider structural and building work to be considered alongside the kitchen where required.
Planning these elements together helps ensure lighting, electrics, plumbing, extraction and appliance positions are resolved at the right stage rather than adjusted later.
For some projects, the kitchen is only one part of the interior being updated.
Tamaru also designs and supplies:
We can also help specify worktops, sinks, taps and appliances.
Our appliance offering includes brands such as Sub-Zero & Wolf, Miele, Siemens, Liebherr, Bora and Lacanche, alongside Blanco, Quooker, Perrin & Rowe and more for sinks, taps and finishing details.
Bringing several elements together through one design process can be particularly useful in open-plan interiors or larger renovation projects.
We begin with a conversation about your home, what is working now and what you would like to improve.
This can start over the phone or at our Hockliffe studio.
An early discussion around budget also helps us explore the cabinetry, appliances and finishes that are appropriate for the project.
We work through the layout first, considering storage, appliance positions, seating, worktop space and circulation.
Plans and visuals are then presented in our studio, where we can review the design together and compare cabinetry, finishes and materials.
Once the design and specification have been developed, we prepare a detailed quotation.
Manufacturing typically takes around four to eight weeks, depending on the cabinetry selected.
Installation is also available and usually takes around two to three weeks for a typical kitchen. Projects involving more extensive renovation or building work may require a longer programme.

Our studio is on Watling Street in Hockliffe, Leighton Buzzard.
Here you can see kitchen displays, compare German and Handmade cabinetry and explore materials and finishes with our design team.
We work across Buckingham, Newport Pagnell, Milton Keynes and the wider Buckinghamshire and Bedfordshire areas.
The cost of a kitchen depends on the size and complexity of the room, cabinetry chosen, appliances, worktops, internal storage and installation requirements.
As a broad guide, fully fitted kitchens can start from around £15,000 for a smaller scheme, with medium-sized kitchens and island layouts often moving into the £20,000–£25,000+ range.
Larger kitchens and higher specifications will naturally increase the overall project value.
Discussing budget early helps us develop the specification around the elements that matter most to you.
Interest-free finance and Buy Now, Pay Later options may also be available depending on the project value and products selected.
You can compare German and Handmade English kitchens, specify appliances and finishing details with our team and include installation as part of the project.
Where an extension, structural alteration or larger renovation is involved, our connection with DreamBuild also allows the kitchen and wider building work to be planned together.
