Crafted together, to be lived with for years
Each piece begins with a considered design process, where function, style and overall aesthetic are carefully explored. Whether for indoor or outdoor use, we work together to shape a piece that not only fits your space, but feels right within it — balancing practicality with a timeless, understated design.
Timber selection is a key part of the process, with a focus on recycled hardwoods and salvaged logs, each carrying its own character, colour and natural features. From live edges to clean, square finishes — or even incorporating your own timber — every detail is thoughtfully chosen. Each piece is then crafted by hand, finished with oil, wax or polish to enhance and protect the timber, before being carefully delivered. Timeframes vary depending on the scale and complexity of the work, ensuring every piece is given the attention it deserves.

Restoration
Furniture restoration is approached with the same care and attention as new work, focusing on preserving the integrity and story of each piece. This includes detailed timber repairs, refinishing with oil or traditional French polish, and careful colour matching to restore depth and character. Whether addressing general wear, water damage, or more significant issues, each restoration is carried out with a considered, sympathetic approach.
I also work with insurance repairers, as well as Airbnb and hotel properties, providing reliable, high-quality repair work where durability and presentation are equally important. From minor touch-ups to more involved restoration, the aim is always to return each piece to a standard that feels both natural and lasting within its environment.

Architectural joinery
Architectural joinery is approached with a focus on precision, function and integration within the overall space.
