Beyond the Den

Four-poster beds can be built into the existing structure of your home or created as free-standing pieces, each one designed to suit your space and style. Carefully selected oak is chosen to complement its surroundings — whether windblown and weathered, reclaimed barn beams or repurposed fence posts — giving each bed a unique character and sense of history.

These stunning curved oak benches are handcrafted from windblown and weathered trees sourced through the National Trust. The natural ageing of the timber creates beautiful variation in colour and grain, giving each bench its own distinctive character. Trunks and branches are milled, cleft or chainsawn on site before being taken to the workshop where they are carefully shaped, jointed and assembled into the finished piece.

Single slabs of characterful waney-edged oak are the preferred choice for coffee table tops. The base design can vary to suit your style — from simple angled legs to a more traditional refectory table with a through-morticed stretcher, or a lapped Saracen cross with shelving and drawers beneath.

From complete storage solutions to updating existing cupboards with bespoke doors, each project is designed to complement the space it occupies. Materials and styles are carefully chosen together, whether oak shaker frames with mortice and tenon joints, cherry panels, or reclaimed pine ledge-and-brace doors fixed with traditional rose-headed clench nails. Handles and hinges can be selected from quality fittings or custom-forged depending on the desired finish and budget.

 A statement dining table can take many forms. Working closely with each client, I design tables that combine the right materials and proportions to suit both the space and the way it will be used. Traditional joinery techniques ensure every piece is built with strength, longevity and timeless character.

Long summer lunches are made even better around a beautifully crafted outdoor table. These bespoke garden pieces are designed to bring people together, comfortably seating family and friends. Built from high-quality locally sourced oak and joined using traditional methods, they are made to endure both the elements and many years of gatherings.
