Re-introducing myself

I recently did a socials takeover for The Makers Directory so I thought I’d re-introduce myself here so... Hi I'm Liv!

I design and make nature inspired furniture and homeware. I have a range of unique pieces that I make to order in a lovely Sussex countryside workshop, with my trusty sidekick Lola.

I love being creative and making things, I have done since I was tiny. I've worked for a few great design studios but I started my own business so I could do what I want and when- I don't like doing what I'm told!

I love woodwork but my favourite part of what I do is creating new designs, so I'm slowly growing to be able to do more of that.

Here's some pictures to get to know me and my work

1- Me at the workshop, making a little table -with some straight lines which is rare!

2- My fav piece at the moment (and newest) the Low Tide coffee table. Made from layers of ash resembling calm waves coming in onto the shore.

3- Clamping up a Flow shelf unit.

4- Me and Lola. My best buddy and workshop dog.

5- Flow Lamp family - these floor lamps are my best seller, they're made from one wide piece of solid oak that I hand pick from my fav timber yard English Woodlands Timber

6- Details of a few pieces showing how the flowing curves compliment the natural wood

7- Wavy Moon shelf unit. With nature as inspiration my pieces can resemble many things found in the natural world... Clouds, waves, creatures, planets, branches...

8- Some smaller pieces; Circle cheese board, Droplet olive bowl, Stripe table lamp, Flat bud vases.

9- my biggest piece, the Ravella cabinet in the Droplet collection. Featuring cupboards and drawers, storage and display, or for drinks and glasses.

10- Me in the middle of turning on the lathe. I'm often covered in sawdust or chippings
