Richard
Our fabulous founder Richard, as well being ginger and occasionally very irritating, has many characteristics that you really do want from someone who is going to build you a bespoke kitchen. He's charming, which helps when discussing the options: colours, texture, finish etc. He is also very pedantic and pays far too much attention to tiny details - a good trait when designing kitchens, because they really do need to work.
Richard also has lots of practical experience to back up the bluster. His professional journey started way back at the turn of the millennium when studying architecture and sustainable design at university. It took him through teaching, art and antiques businesses, to managing a social enterprise that empowered communities through making and then all the way to his wonderful workshop at The Old Sub-station, in the salubrious Harlesden, NW London.
He hopes you will visit to see where the alchemy happens.
