furniture and woodwork made with passion, precision and purpose.

I am a designer, cabinet-maker and wood-turner based in the Yorkshire Dales. I work mainly with native, reasonably / sustainably sourced hardwoods. Every piece i make has been designed, crafted and finished with the same high level of passion, precision and purpose as the one before it.

Having trained and worked commercially for nearly a decade I decided it was time to start putting my own designs into production. I work in a mainly Nordic style with some Japanese influences. Simplistic and stylish, built with a specific purpose pieces that can both make a statement on their own or subtly live among various household styles.

Working mainly with traditional methods and using a variety of finishes.
