Purposeful Design

Slatted Shoe bench

Purposeful Design

A client approached me seeking a solution to conceal their fibre broadband installation, keeping the router and sockets out of reach of little fingers. We discussed creating a functional and practical piece that would blend seamlessly into their home.

The result was this unique shoe bench for their entry hall. Crafted from reclaimed vintage pine sourced from a closed secondhand bookshop, the bench not only complements their period floorboards but also features a slatted design that allows for ventilation while maintaining a stylish appearance.

Found The Right Home

Geometric Shelf

Found The Right Home

This geometric shelf was customised from one of our original designs. We added the natural tessellation pattern of cut ended bamboo into one of the spaces giving honeycomb bee vibes.

This was commissioned by a teacher and fittingly it was made from timber from old school gym equipment and with bamboo that was cut down from a garden clearance.

This gives the top a truly one of a kind look with an interesting story.

An Imperfect Game

Reclaimed wood draughts game

An Imperfect Game

This reclaimed draughts set was created after being offered a door that had been removed from someone’s property to make way for a new one.

There was a challenge as to what could be done with the odd size pieces of timber that made up the door panels.

Inspired by the darkness of the timber and how it contrasted against the lightness of ash and oak the idea of creating a limited run draughts set.
