to installation

Every project begins with a conversation. We work closely with designers and their clients from the earliest concept stage through to final installation, a single studio, accountable throughout.

Share your concept, drawings, mood boards or simply an ambition. We'll meet on site or in our showroom to understand the full scope and advise on what's possible.

02
Design
Development

Our team translates intent into precise technical drawings, material specifications and samples, refined in close collaboration with your design team until every detail is resolved.

03
Production
& Craft

Made across our network of specialist workshops by craftspeople, joiners, metalworkers, upholsterers and finishers, with full quality control at every stage.

04
Delivery
& Installation

Installed on site by our team, coordinated with your contractors and finished to the precise standard the project demands. We don't leave until it's right.

Craftsmanship & Finishes

Techniques that
define the detail

From traditional marquetry and hand gilding to Murano glass and straw marquetry, the finishes that elevate a project from exceptional to extraordinary.

In their words

What our clients
say

James produced highly custom, and quite complex, pieces for a luxury commercial space we were designing in London. As a Los Angeles firm taking on an overseas project, we needed a trusted vendor who could deliver the craftsmanship our clients expect. He managed the upholstery, metal and wood production through his workshops, guided us through pricing, sampling and thoughtful design adjustments, and went above and beyond throughout. I can't recommend his services enough.
