Short Film on Wood Turner Liam Flynn
It never ceases to amaze me online how one thing can lead to another, like a subconscious thread connecting everything together. Recently we've enjoyed learning more about Japanese craft and wooden objects in particular, the way in which many of these independents emphasise the qualities of the mate
The Art of Steam Bending by David Trubridge

A Place To Gather Short Film
It's projects and people like this that make my day, those immersed in their own creative bubble, striving to create products that have life and soul, quality and purpose. If you've not caught the latest film by Jamie and Keith they've been asked by the Crafts Council of Ireland to put together a co
Short Film on Rohan Anderson’s Smokehouse
One of the things I love about the work I undertake each day is that you never know what you are going to find, the internet is such a vast and powerful tool, much like the sea you never know what it's going to present on its shore. Of course not everything is useful and I can assure you we've seen
Short Film on Sculptor Paula Winokur

I have to admit his name is one I haven't crossed paths with on the internet before today, however The Av
The Long 8 Chair by Natanel Gluska
This project was somewhat of a surprise for me this morning in that I was expecting one style of furniture and in the end I found myself admiring something completely different. Initially I stumbled across Natanel Gluska's freeform chair constructed out of fibreglass, which reminded me a lot of some
Minuscule Chair by Cecille Manz
Browsing around this morning I found myself enjoying this short film on modern day designer Cecille Manz, who I have to admit I'm not all that familiar with. I was however really taken with her Minuscule chair design and given that Fritz Hansen who put the film together offer her work alongside that
Made Here Series: Folk Fibers
The Levi’s Made Here series is a project we’ve highlighted in the past yet until today I hadn’t noticed any further developments. I’m glad they’ve come through with another short film however as we get introduced to the talented Maura Ambrose who is responsible for Folk Fibers, a company s
Violin Maker Melvin Goldsmith
At lunch we both came across this short video by Crane TV that really captured our imagination, it’s a piece which features violin maker Melvin Goldsmith. Melvin is a very talented man and made his first violin at the age of 12, his Grandfather taught him the ropes and happened to be a decent amat
