A day at the races just got a whole lot more stylish!

We recently had the pleasure of working with York Racecourse to furnish the hospitality areas in the Knavesmire Stand. Our goal was to create a space that feels as exciting and high-end as the racing action outside.

Whether you're there for the Ebor Festival or a private corporate event, our furniture provides the comfort and class you’d expect from one of the UK’s premier sporting venues.

Check out the photos of the finished look!

It’s , and we’re heading to the historic village of Haworth!

Did you know the original bandstand in Haworth Central Park was demolished in the 1970s? We were honoured to work with the local council and the "Friends of Haworth Park" to bring music back to the gardens with this bespoke replacement.

Measuring over 6 metres tall, this octagonal beauty was built right here in our Yorkshire workshops. We used traditional "circle and cross" designs for the ironwork to make sure it looked like it had always been there, but added modern touches like anti-vandal lighting so it stays safe and bright for evening performances.

It’s now the heart of the park once again, perfect for brass bands, local events, and summer strolls.

Whether you’re designing a cosy local pub or a modern wine bar, antiques provide a level of character that new furniture just can't touch. But what exactly is the design difference"?

In our latest blog post, we look at why antiques are more than just "old things"—they are investments in quality, sustainability, and unparalleled style.

For today’s , we’re showcasing the custom restaurant canopy we designed and built to help this client make the most of their outdoor space all year round.

From the West Yorkshire workshop to the final bolt on-site, this structure was built to last. We even hid the drainage inside the pillars to keep the design looking sharp and modern!

Every year, Salone del Mobile provides the definitive roadmap for the future of interiors. Andy Thornton attended this year to get a first look at new products and innovations, cement partnerships and foster new relationships which will help set us apart for the upcoming year. With any event like this the main thing on everyone’s minds is – what are the latest trends and how will they impact the way the hospitality sector looks and feels?

We are happy to say we were not disappointed with the trends. From material fusion to bright colours and adaptable designs, the 2026 trends are looking bold, bright and sophisticated.

Ever wonder how a restaurant goes from a concept to a stunning, inviting space? Our latest project at Tortello is the perfect example.

The goal was "Mediterranean Tranquillity," and we achieved it by pairing soft mint greens and powder pinks with the timeless elegance of marble and brass.

The standout piece of the room? Our bespoke, hand-crafted banquette seating, designed right here in our workshops to ensure it’s as comfortable as it is beautiful. Whether you're there for the handmade pasta or the Hyde Park views, the atmosphere is designed to make you feel right at home.
