You may have
been unsuccessfully searching for a specific item for some time and be
clear what you want. You may have been inspired by seeing my work in a
gallery or at an exhibition but want help focusing your ambitions. In
either case I will work closely with you to realise your project and ensure
that commissioning
a piece of furniture is an enjoyable journey for you as well as for me.
The process is an organic one which must be taken in stages with regular
consultation to give you confidence that you will treasure the end result.
If possible,
I would initially like to see the intended setting for the piece. This
will provide ideas as well as making me aware of constraints. I can listen
to your response to photographs of my past work and hear your hopes and
concerns. After this, I will need time to reflect and come up with ideas.
I will prepare
sketches and samples, possibly even a model, together with preliminary
costings and timescales. These can be amended in response to your reactions
until we decide on a final design so that I can provide a firm price and
completion date.
Only when
you are happy will I ask for an initial payment of half of the price and
commence the work. The balance is due on completion. I will maintain your
involvement in the project during construction with regular reports and
visits so that you can appreciate the craftsmanship being wrought on your
behalf.
It is my
intention that when we reach the final exciting stage of unveiling the
finished work in your home you will feel real ownership and pride.
But the first move is yours: give me a ring, or send
an email, and tell me about your plans.
