Ahem, 25 years!

What's the key to a successful project?


Communication, communication, communication!

Most challenging brief you've worked on?


Funnily enough, a book shop! The owners approached us during a challenging period for high-street retail and we had to rethink entirely the experience of browsing for books. We settled on a books, wine and coffee approach, that would allow the bookshop to become a local hub for cultural events.

What started with interior design and planning soon lead to a full package of services including the supply of bespoke joinery and furniture.

While it was definitely a challenging project, it was a real joy to see it all come together.
