Jonathan is a member of the Worshipful Company of Furniture Makers. He was delighted to be awarded a bespoke guild mark award for an edition of ten chairs in rippled ash completed in 2017.
In my practice, I question the confines of the domestic and practical demands of furniture and interpret the human longing for a deeper connection to traditional crafts, contemporary aesthetics and an engagement with natural materials, allied to a story made visceral through the maker’s time and hand.
While primarily focusing on the design’s functionality, I incorporate through the choice of natural materials a timeless feel that will, through use, be complemented with a patina of age.
Most importantly creating a balance between elegance and functionality, with a simplicity of line,
form and materials, making pieces that are easy to live with and give both visual and tactile pleasure.
"I like the elegant simplicity of a table to be found at the centre of the home. It is a pleasing thought that a large proportion of my commissions are for tables, the significance of which resonates with me as a symbol of meeting and coming together".
