Craftsmanship

Timeless construction and material expression.

Timeless Construction

Our approach to craftsmanship is rooted in timeless construction techniques and material expression. We work with both traditional and contemporary methods, always prioritising quality, durability, and how materials respond to their environment.

Each piece is crafted with attention to detail, from the initial joinery to the final finish. We believe that construction should be visible and celebrated, not hidden.

Joinery

We use traditional joinery techniques including mortise and tenon, dovetail, and frame construction. These methods ensure structural integrity while allowing the material to move naturally with changes in humidity and temperature.

Our joinery is visible and celebrated as part of the design, contributing to the overall narrative of each piece.

Finishing

We apply finishes that enhance the natural character of the materials while providing protection. Our finishes are chosen to allow the wood grain, metal patina, and stone texture to speak through.

We work with natural oils, waxes, and carefully selected varnishes, applying them with care and attention to detail.

Material Expression

Our craftsmanship is material-led. We work with the inherent qualities of each material, allowing grain patterns, natural variations, and structural properties to inform the construction and final form.

This approach results in furniture that feels authentic and timeless, with construction that speaks to both function and aesthetic expression.
