their story

 

We carefully select our designers and only work with those who share our ethos - to bring you thoughtfully designed pieces that are sustainably sourced, using the highest quality of materials.

We believe in good design and as part of that it is equally important to know by whom and where your product is made. When buying items for your home it's a considered purchase, often a piece that you keep for many years to come or pass on to the next generation.  That's why appreciating good design is also about knowing the person or story behind your item, making shopping a more personal experience. 

So here we share with you the people and stories behind your product.
