Our process
Commissioning a piece
Design
We strive to design and make bespoke, unique pieces of furniture, and everything begins with an initial consultation for us to understand what you are looking for. The project can be as much of a collaboration as you would like; we are happy to work with a specific brief and to involve you at every step, or alternatively we are happy designing a piece with creative freedom that we think would work perfectly in your space.
Sketches
Whether we are designing a new piece of furniture for your home, or undertaking a large refurbishment project, everything starts with a pencil sketch drawn by Sean. Paying close attention to the room, lighting and space, we will provide you with a design and choice of timber that we have carefully selected. Ultimately, what matters most to us is you fall in love with the design and we therefore will go through as many iterations as you like. Once we have finalised the design, we will present you with a watercolour painting of the piece.
Build
The piece will be hand-made in our workshop in Kent, using the best quality hand-tools and machinery, and finest levels of craftsmanship to ensure the piece will last for generations. During the making we will keep you updated with videos and pictures so you can see the piece come to life.
Delivery
We personally will deliver the piece to you, ensuring everything is in immaculate condition, along with providing advice on how to best care for your piece. If you are based outside of the UK, we use a trusted courier service.
Beautiful Solid Wood
We believe in making beautiful pieces of solid wood furniture that transform spaces. To do that we use specialty woods from around the world, including walnut and mahogany and native woods such as maple, oak, and cherry. Each has unique characteristics like burrs and ripples that we work with and build into a beautiful, eye catching, and long lasting design.
Our woods can have vibrant, striking colouration offering rich purples, red, deep browns with highly distinctive grain patterns. These natural patterns add visual interest and become design focal points. Working with the varied properties of exotic woods allows us to push our artistic boundaries and create pieces of furniture that are unique, expressive and hopefully treasured.
We ensure that all the woods we use are certified and sourced properly in a sustainable way so we can enjoy the beauty of them while protecting their local ecosystems.
