I am a designer/maker and my work, specifically the Trio Collection, has evolved from my fascination with geometry, the natural world and displaying indoor plants to their full potential on natural materials. All items are handcrafted by me in my Bristol workshop. I use timber offcuts for the smaller items and sustainably sourced materials.
After final designs, prototyping and jig construction is complete, the making begins. I machine a batch of timber on my surface planer, thicknesser and table saw and then carefully arrange pieces together to show the timber off to its finest. After the main construction of each piece, the hand tools come out and the pairing, final sanding and oiling happens.
I also design & make free-standing & fitted furniture. This follows a similar process to the Trio Collection but is made to order, one at a time.
I feel that items should be long term investments, crafted and cared for with the intent to become antiques.
