Like a fine painting, furniture and objects can pull focus in a room and transform the formulaic into the pure idiosyncratic. They can also fit seamlessly into a chosen aesthetic, pull it all together and make it sing. Show us garden that is not greatly improved by the addition of a couple of Adirondack chairs; drawing you closer to sit back and admire the view. What living room is not perfectly completed by a Ligne Roset Togo sofa with its sensual curves waiting to be admired and then envelop you in its embrace. Beautiful one-of-a-kind objects have the power to revolutionise, elevate and complete the world around our everyday lives.
On Makers Made we have a selection of some of the finest makers in the UK producing standout pieces for your home. They have been chosen specifically to bring you something extraordinary with a playful twist.
