Finally getting round to sharing these beautiful photos of furniture pieces made by me and @meudailmeudail , featured in @houseandgardenuk earlier this year as part of Harvest Contemporary Craft Fair by @craftscotland ๐ผ๐
Recent mural design for the waiting room of @newcastlefertility , Centre for Life, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. โจThis piece was created in consultation with NHS staff, aiming to help create a calming and therapeutic environment for people using the centre.
Thanks to Katie Newell and the team at @newcastle_nhs for all your support!

Indoor Games - details: Pink Chairโจ
This installation in the summer of 2025 was an experiment in translating a body of research drawings into physical elements within a space - to create a playful, abstracted interior environment.โจโจSome of the drawings were purely abstract, and some were reminiscent of things that were more familiar, like this funny little chair-like shape. It kept coming up through different rounds of sketching - like it was asking to be brought to life. And the bubblegum pink wood stain felt like an appropriate finish ๐ธ๐๐๐ฌ

Proposal: Reimagining Portobello Promenade ๐๏ธ
We collaborated with the brilliant @emertumilty on our proposal for @community_competitions_ to create a community-focused spatial redesign of Portobello Prom. To support the upkeep of public facilities and enliven a key spot midway along the promenade, we proposed a bright & playful sculptural landscape:
๐ถ a bandstand for music and community events
๐ฟ showers for swimmers fresh from the sea ๐ค a boathouse for rowers and coastal life
๐๏ธ stalls for markets and local makers
๐ช bold seating that invites both rest and play
Even the existing toilet block would have been reimagined in the same playful spirit. The aim was to bring colour, form and joy to the promenade - creating a space as lively and inviting as the people who use it.
Thanks @community_competitions_ for inviting us to play! We had so much fun dreaming up ideas for Porty Prom.
Congrats to the winners @brownandcompany.uk - canโt wait to see how things develop!
Thank you so much to everyone who came along last night for the opening of Indoor Games, and to everyone who visited today, and bought the T-shirts, and asked about the work, and the process, and brought donuts ๐๐ป my heart is very full! The show is on every day 10am - 6pm at @newglasgowsociety till 6th August ๐๐ผ๐๐ปโโ๏ธ
