Back

“I’m a designer and maker of furniture, teacher, carpenter, and technician.

I work with locally sourced timber and incorporate other materials into my designs.

All my furniture is made by me. I like to create things that are elegant but do not take themselves too seriously. Playful yet simple design made with utility and longevity in mind.

I love collaborating with other makers and have been involved in some amazing projects working as part of a team such as the Fenland Black Oak Project https://www.thefenlandblackoakproject.co.uk. And, with the Snowdon School of Furniture, making the chairs for royal congregation guests at King Charles lll’s Coronation.”

Emma is one of our tutors, and teaches our eight week Woodwork Project: Oak Table course.
