Bespoke Joinery & Furniture
Handcrafted in Northumberland

Makers of carefully considered windows, doors, kitchens and furniture — designed and made in-house with a respect for tradition, material, and purpose. We believe in understated, lasting design that feels natural in its setting and considered in its making.

These are the parts of a home we reach for without thinking — steady, familiar, made to last. — and our role is to shape them with care, for comfort and connection.
