James Huddleston Furniture Maker
The inspiration for my work as a furniture maker and designer comes from a passion for the raw materials. From the initial hand selection of each board, through to the finished piece, I let the timber inspire my designs.
Working in harmony with the natural scent, colour and textures of solid wood, my aim is to create functional contemporary designs using traditional techniques.
Natural finishing products enrich and protect my furniture, whilst enhancing its beauty.
Using native and sustainable timbers, I endeavour to limit my impact on the environment, whilst tracing the source adds interest to each piece.
On commissioned pieces I work closely with the client, developing ideas to create something unique and bespoke that will always be cherished.
My speculative pieces enable me to express myself whilst experimenting in unusual and perhaps unfamiliar timbers.
