It’s so lovely getting to see my work in people’s homes. Isn’t this a gorgeous kitchen.
I make each piece by hand in my studio and send them off, so it’s incredibly rewarding to see them installed and looking so good in their new space.
If you have photos of yours at home, please do send them over - I love seeing them.

Warm glow, patterns of light and layered shadows.
Each light is handmade from cardboard, cut and built layer by layer, creating a soft interior warmth — with light slipping through the edges and casting patterns across the room.
Bringing atmosphere, texture, and warmth into your space.
Sustainable. Sculptural. Unexpected

Handmade entirely from corrugated cardboard the new CartOn T1 table light transforms an everyday material into something unexpected.
The layered surface gently diffuses light creating a warm glow and subtle patterned shadows.
Supplied ready to use with a braided black flex, black plug and inline switch.

The Poly collection is handmade from reclaimed estate agent boards.
Minimal white on the outside the original colours patterns and printed graphics of the board are preserved on the inside.
When illuminated the hidden interior is revealed - turning a white shade into a glowing, colourful patterned light.

This light started as waste.
Reclaimed estate agent boards that had come to the end of their use and were scrap ready to be discarded.
I collect the boards from local sign companies and don’t know what I’ll be getting so the colours and patterns are different every time and create individual shades.

Handmade from reclaimed advertising boards - this light started as waste.
You’ll be hearing me say that a lot.
I use everyday and waste materials to make something new, and I’ve noticed people don’t always realise what the material is at first. There’s always a real moment of surprise when they do.
So I’m going to keep pointing it out - because, to be honest, I think it’s really cool.

Exhibiting at Material Matters 2025 was a turning point.
During conversations with visitors and fellow exhibitors, I found a clarity in how I speak about my work and why it matters.
Talking about my work – the materials, my process and the intention behind it – with people engaged in sustainability and waste helped me find the words not just for what I create, but why I create it.
Something shifted and I stopped editing myself.
I found myself proudly telling people things I’d previously held back, like saying ‘isn’t it amazing you can put it on the compost?’ – because this doesn’t diminish the work, it’s part of the story.
I also took part in a talk about ‘working with waste’. It was a scary prospect at first, but standing up and speaking about my work in that way became part of that same shift. And I actually enjoyed it.
Waste isn’t an end for me.
I see a beginning.
