Lifestyle

Carbon pieces for the home and for life aboard, made to be lifted, touched and kept.

A cantilevered stair of dark treads rising along an oak-panelled wall, a stainless handrail, a polished concrete floor and the sea through a tall window.

Bespoke work

A bespoke piece begins with the room and the person it is for, and leaves the workshop with its record: every ply and every cure, written down.

Lounge chair

A carbon lounge chair on a brushed stainless sled, in a room of oak and stone. The afternoon runs along the twill of its shell like water.

Why carbon in the hand

You feel the piece, not its weight.

Lift the same tray as each is usually made and carbon comes up first, almost without asking. Ask each material for the same stiffness instead and the difference stays: carbon needs a thin skin where the others need thickness or weight. Look closer and all of it sits under a clear coat thinner than a hair.

The path of an order

A bespoke piece starts as a drawing, a photograph or a conversation, and leaves as a piece with its record. A catalogue piece starts one step later, at a drawing that already exists.

From the sketch to the room.

  1. 1The sketch

    The owner, the designer or the studio sends a drawing, a photograph of the room, or simply the idea.

  2. 2Design

    Form, laminate, leather and fittings resolved against the room and the hand. The drawing is agreed before any tooling is cut.

  3. 3Production

    Tooling, lay-up, a cure on a written profile, the clear coat and the leather, every step logged as it happens.

  4. 4Delivery

    The piece reaches the home, the studio or the yacht with its record, and is set where it was drawn to stand.

Every piece ships with its record.
