In the past I’ve written about all manner of ‘seating devices’ (for want of a better term) - I’ve gone into some detail about benches and stools, but until now, I’ve left the humble chair alone. The title of this piece really needs no further explanation – I mean it’s not rocket science, when it comes to plonking our bodies down – chairs matter! Of course they are important, and, by extension, so is finding one that suits you...

Seeing that Summer has well and truly started to flex its muscles, I’d thought this week I’d highlight another wonderful outdoor piece...

Before I tell you about our stunning new outdoor benches I’d just like to take this opportunity to thank you all for your all your support over the years and wish you all a Happy, Happy New Year. Let’s hope 2012 is a fantastic and positive year for us all...

This week I thought I’d bring up the subject of glass (a recent customer was delighted when she discovered we could add glass inserts into the entertainment unit she was designing) it does have a very immediate impact on the overall aesthetic of a piece...

Over the years we’ve always stocked a wide range of wicker and rattan products - and we’ve witnessed, first hand, the changes. Now ten years ago, rattan was all the rage, even though the quality was variable. But of course tastes and needs change and of course products need to evolve to cope with this change...

I think one of the wonderful things about design is the limitless possibilities it throws up – such variety enables us to furnish our homes with the style that best reflects us (sadly budget has a big part to play in this too, I mean I would love to have Gustav Klimt’s  ‘the kiss’ hanging in my bedroom but... )

This week I wanted to highlight one of our more beautiful pieces – taking inspiration from the school of Danish design we created our Nordic console table. We stuck to the principles of functionality, high quality craftsmanship and simplicity...

 This week I wanted to draw your attention to an offer we are running – and before your eyes glaze over and you start mumbling about ‘sales overload’, please bear with me and read on -  because this is an offer, in the immortal words of Brando – ‘you can’t refuse.’
