Notes from the workshop

Short, honest reads on timber, joinery and getting the most out of made-to-measure furniture — written by the people who build it.

Materials

Which timbers cope best with our heat and humidity — and where each one earns its keep.

Planning

When built-in joinery wins, when a movable piece makes more sense, and how to decide.

Care

Simple habits that keep solid-wood and veneered pieces looking good for decades.

Thinking about a project?

We are always happy to talk timber and layouts before you commit to anything.
