Novocastrian are Metalworkers, Designers and Architects who make functional objects and commissioned insertions. Our craft is born of industry, of the manufacturing heritage of the North of England. Our creations are elemental, they are humble yet timeless. We believe in the honest beauty of raw, modest materials. Metal is our obsession, the backbone of our work. Each and every one of our pieces is hand-crafted with passion and integrity by hardy northern souls.
Each Novocastrian product is a collaboration between design and fabrication. We are not trained furniture designers nor craftsmen, but an architect, a graphic designer and an industrially-trained metalworker. The result of this melting pot, we feel, is the unexpected, a symbiotic celebration of form and materiality. We use time-honoured techniques and an understated palette to create refined, contemporary aesthetics with just a hint of opulence. We embrace the quirks of the metalworker’s interpretation, encouraging his hand as much as the designer’s. Although metal is our speciality, the use of a carefully-selected range of Cumbrian slates permeates our work. The reinterpretation of such modest materials to emphasise their inherent beauty is a key theme in our creative philosophy.
