Contemporary wooden furniture, handmade in London by Knot Design
Knot Design is a London-based furniture studio creating bespoke handmade wooden furniture on commission to private clients and interior designers across the UK.
Each piece is crafted in my North London workshop using sustainably sourced British timber, from custom dining tables, desks and coffee tables to made-to-measure storage and cabinetry.
Furniture Designs
My furniture range features some of my most in-demand designs, many of which can be fully customised on request.
Some items in the store have been made as one-offs for exhibitions or experimental design.
Each and every piece has been designed to last for generations - combining elegance with functionality and showcasing the best of British timber species.
STANTON - Carver: The armed companion to the Stanton dining chair, sharing the same oak frame, Danish cord seat, and curved backrest.
STANTON - Dining Chair: A solid oak dining chair with a carved, angled backrest and hand-woven Danish cord seat, on tapered legs.
TRUMAN - Bedside Table: A one-drawer bedside table hand-dovetailed in solid English elm, with a bog oak pull and timber drawer runners in place of metal hardware.
A slender oak dining bench with a hand-woven Danish cord seat — understated, comfortable, and made to order in your choice of finish.
A handcrafted tambour media unit in solid ash and fumed oak - flowing slatted doors, generous storage, made entirely to order.
DICKENS - Wall Shelf: A made-to-order wall-hung shelving unit in solid oak, with mid-century curved uprights, sized and configured to fit your space.
AVERY - Long Coffee Table: An elongated coffee table in pippy oak, stretching the Avery collection's draped-rope leg detail into a low, 100cm lozenge form.
IVER - Side Table: A small three-legged side table in oak or blackened ash, with scalloped turned legs fixed through the top with wedged through-tenons.
BRADSTOW - Round Coffee Table: A round coffee table hand-carved with a scalloped texture, available in sweet chestnut, oak, ash, elm, or London plane.
STICKLE - Bench: A slatted bench in solid ash, supported by a single hidden steel spine rather than rails, letting the ribbed seat flex slightly under weight.
MASON - Bar Stool: A solid oak bar stool with a hand-woven Danish cord seat and no metal fasteners, at a height suited to most kitchen counters.
AVERY - Side Table: The compact, rectangular edition of the Avery collection, in solid oak, sized to sit alongside a sofa arm.
AVERY - Round Coffee Table: A round coffee table in solid European oak, built around the collection's signature rope-like legs, which curve and overlap at the base.
Bespoke Furniture Design
I also offer a fully bespoke handcrafted furniture commissioning service. Working hand-in-hand with the private client or interior designer to create beautiful, practical and unique furniture pieces that fit your home perfectly.
From bedside tables to media units, dining tables to benches, together we can create a piece of unique, luxury furniture for your home.
Inspired by a table cloth's soft folds, this double-pedestal oak dining table was hand-shaped from curved sections for a Chiswick client.
An elliptical oak dining table, hand-carved and scaled up from the Avery coffee table - seats six, eight at a squeeze for special occasions.
A narrow Georgian hallway called for clever storage - this hand-carved London plane bench blends beaten-metal texture with hidden shoe and chest storage.
A ladder-frame console with flared, tapering legs and hand-carved bleached sycamore panels - echoing the client's own Japanese-inspired roofline.
Six-drawer sycamore tallboy inspired by a stack of ribboned birthday gifts - walnut parquetry, steam-bent handles, drawers dovetailed by hand.
Rattan-style curves reimagined in solid English oak - six stack-laminated curved leg sections meet in sculptural bundles beneath the table.
A dark, mid-century inspired dining table in European walnut, engineered to disassemble for a client's future move overseas.
