James Howe is a former journalist and photographer, whose award-winning design practice exists to create superb furniture for those who crave beauty and human connection in their homes.

His furniture pieces are refined and tactile, encapsulating the delight of adventure and story-telling, using materials in novel ways and reinventing old crafts. Drawing on a wide range of design styles and traditions, from modernism to classical architecture, James also takes inspiration from what he observes in nature, city landscapes, and utilitarian man-made objects.

He rants regularly and passionately on Instagram about the need to value beauty in our cities, and stop building sh*t, ugly houses everywhere.
