About Exhibitions Commissions Awards Press Outlets
The folly was an architectural witticism of the 17th and 18th century aristocracy. I have brought the concept into the 21st century, reviving this unique and celebrated slice of British eccentricity but fusing it with contemporary design principals and traditional sustainable materials.
 
Using chestnut, cedar, oak, copper and glass, these follies are beautiful yet durable self contained structures that provide an antidote to our seemingly constant state of divided attention. Each is a tower of tranquillity, designed to engage the senses, enliven the spirit and offer a platform from which we can establish a reconnection between our landscape, our skyscape and ourselves.
 
Design templates can be adapted to individual requirements. A bespoke design service is also available for function and site specific space.
 
Price range: £3,850 - £18,500+
