David Laird

David Laird’s passion lies in craftsmanship, with a central focus on creating sustainable furniture which is built to last and can be repaired. He works exclusively with locally sourced end-of-life trees and timber from trees removed for development, transforming them into carbon-negative, handmade pieces that combine traditional techniques with modern knowledge.

Each piece is crafted from a palette of biodegradable, locally sourced materials, offering a thoughtful response to today’s environmental challenges. The origin of every piece of timber is recorded, and its story remains with the furniture, fostering a connection between people and place while raising awareness of the valuable urban timber resources that often go unmanaged.
