Three furniture designers operating from Mentmore Studios in Hackney, East London.
Working independently and collaboratively, we have come together to exhibit our work at 100% Futures.
As furniture designers we feel it is essential to build mock-ups and test materials and processes throughout the design process. The wood and metal workshop immediately next door to the studio allows us to work in this manner.
