The workshop
No factory floor and no production line. The same person who draws your piece cuts the steel, glues the top and loads the van.
Inside the barn
How a commission works
Send us the room, the rough size and the feeling you are after. We will come back with a drawing, a fixed price and an honest lead time — then build it.
The commission processJournal
Powder coating is faster, tougher and cheaper. We still do it the slow way, and this is the honest argument for why.
Quartz behaves nothing like limestone, and a slab that photographs beautifully can be wrong for a kitchen. What we look for.
Eleven weeks, three materials and one commission, traced from the first sketch on the bench to the delivery van.
From the barn
Occasional letters — a finished commission, a run of offcut pieces, an open workshop day. Nothing more than once a month.
