Collaborating with furniture-maker Matthew Marchbank, these benches were originally commissioned for the Dick Sheppard Chapel at St Martin-in-the-Fields Church, London.
The robustness of oak is a counterpoint to the delicacy of form and celebration of craft.
This furniture marks the start of a series of collaborations including ironmongery, glasswork and textiles.
These designs are a commitment to the enrichment of our culture and daily life – and future collaborations will continue to explore the relationship between designer and maker, context and material.
