MEASURED PASSION
The idea that enthusiasm and artistry are only as good as the discipline and craft behind them. The sweet spot between precision, expertise, honest design and our distinctive personality, all with a bit of sawdust humour thrown in.
Where a brief becomes timber, timber becomes form and form becomes something you’ll want to live with forever, with every detail executed with genuine heart.
It comes free with every commission.
THE JOE MELLOWS WAY
Working to build relationships beyond wood.
A passion for the brief, for the design, for the details, for the care & for the client.
Joy for creating something that is truly loved and appreciated.
Reassurance you will be working with the best craftsmen and other industry experts, in a way only Joe Mellows Furniture Makers can deliver.
OUR TEAM
Our team have naturally coalesced through our common desire for excellence. We recognise this in each other and enjoy the fertile creative environment that has evolved.
We genuinely love what we do and all of us are continually building on our skillset. We are very practical and methodical people who’ve devoted countless years to learning, practicing, experimenting and refining our skills. It’s a huge discipline that requires a deep understanding of material, craft, technical and aesthetic design, budget, regulation and proper process.
We have fun with the work we do, it’s fulfilling and rewarding and it makes us happy (most of the time)!
Led by Chris in the West Sussex Workshop and Chloe in the Devon Design Studio, this shines in every member of our team. You’ll notice it and we’re confident you’ll love having us as part of your team.
