01 - Carpenter / maker / problem solver

Wood, shaped with intention.

Bespoke furniture and architectural joinery made from honest materials, measured spaces and careful hands. The work balances structural precision with the warmth that only real timber can bring.

01 / About the maker

Made to belong
in the room.

Every commission begins with the way a space is actually used: movement, storage, light, touch and the character the material should add.

02 / Craft language

Four ways
the grain speaks.

Rather than generic skills, the portfolio treats expertise as material decisions and joinery disciplines.

MATERIAL / 01

Solid timber

Oak, walnut, ash and locally sourced hardwoods selected for stability, figure, tactility and how they will age.

MATERIAL / 02

Quiet precision

Mortise and tenon, dovetails, housed joints and concealed fixings where strength should be felt rather than seen.

MATERIAL / 03

Fine finishing

Hand-sanded surfaces, tuned edges, hardwax oils and finishes chosen to let the timber remain the hero.

MATERIAL / 04

Measured fit

On-site templating, careful installation and final adjustment so built-in work feels native to the architecture.

03 / Experience

Years of making,
one cut at a time.

Independent Carpenter / Joiner

Delivering residential furniture, fitted storage, kitchens and architectural details from first measure through installation and finishing.

Senior Workshop Carpenter · Northline Interiors

Built custom cabinetry and furniture for premium residential interiors, coordinating shop drawings, material selection and installation teams.

Apprentice Carpenter · Oak & Mortise Workshop

Learned traditional joinery, machine-room safety, hand-tool maintenance and finishing while producing one-off furniture and restoration pieces.

04 / Selected work

Three builds,
three different answers.

Projects are presented as craft stories: what the space needed, what was made, and the detail that made the result work.

CASE / 001

Walnut library wall

Floor-to-ceiling shelving and a concealed desk designed around an awkward chimney breast. Slatted doors soften the storage while continuous grain keeps the composition calm.

American walnut, Built-in, Hand finish
CASE / 002

Oak kitchen island

European oak island with deep drawers, seating overhang and a durable oil finish designed for everyday family use.

White oak, Joinery
CASE / 003

Entry bench + shoe storage

A compact ash-and-plywood entry piece turning an unused wall into a practical landing zone without visually crowding the hallway.

Ash, Plywood
05 / Work process

From first sketch
to final fit.

01

Measure

Understand the room, movement, constraints, budget and the way the piece needs to work.

02

Design

Translate the brief into proportions, joinery, timber selection, finish and a clear making plan.

03

Make

Mill, cut, join, sand and finish in the workshop with regular quality checks at every stage.

04

Fit

Install, tune doors and drawers, refine interfaces and leave the space ready to use.

06 / Commission a build

room. I'll bring
