Video
My 12 year old son is showing a real interest in film making and to encourage this, I have tasked him with producing a series of short videos of my previous work. We have been sharing these on social media and you can now watch one here. There will likely be a few dotted around the website over the next few months too.
To say I am proud of his efforts would be an understatement and I should also add that he has been fundamental in redesigning this website 🙂
Recently Completed
I was recently tasked with work on a religious ceremonial structure. The project called for traditional cabinetmaking and a fair amount of head scratching. To have been asked to undertake this project has been a real honour. Compleleted early April 2024.
The completed base of the structure, installed in its storage space and ready for use.
Currently in the workshop
I have started work on this art studio project. The space needs to double as a spare room with a sofa bed for occasional weekend visits. I have designed a standing desk with room beneath for two pull out sitting work tables/ desks, floating shelves and a double wardrobe. There is also storage around the fireplace. I have designed the furniture so that if the house is ever sold, the room can immediately transition into a full time bedroom.
A couple of progress shots
The electrical guide I put together for my client and the electrician. This takes a little bit of time to do, but the results are accurate quotes and no miscommunication or ambiguity. It is a small investment for my client but the results are well worth it.
