Architectural glass commissions for residential commercial & public spaces. I produce custom made glass for homes and facades of public buildings on a range of scales, using many glass making techniques including kiln forming, etching and encapsulating hand painted silks.

Please view here a range of selected one off glass projects I have completed.

The effect light has on glass has always fascinated me. I particularly love experimenting with directing artificial light through the material.

I have worked with interior designers, large companies and residential clients to design and make exciting lighting features. In this section you will see the lighting features I have created in bespoke glass, using LED technology.

I have been designing and making bespoke glass spashbacks for over 20 years. I work with kitchen companies and directly with clients to design and make beautiful glass features.

Here you will see a range of competed projects in three sections, one-off textured glass, multi - coloured glass and my new bespoke laminated style glass.

I have been commissioned to design and make many awards over the years, in many different styles. These custom made awards bring a unique element to an event or organisation. Each award is always made by hand and is a one off. Text can be etched, engraved or printed.

Bespoke glass art awards and sculpture make a unique talking point.

Custom made door handles in glass are a wonderful feature to liven up the mundane! Whether its an injection of colour or unique shape, my one off glass handles are durable to be used on solid doors, wardrobes and drawers.

My glass combined with bespoke fixings, create a substantial handle. As you can see they are strong enough to be used in hotels.

My bespoke textured glass is perfect for use as shelving and table tops as it can be toughened to meet safety standards. It is equally suited for windows & doors.

I have been fortunate to work with some of the most amazing and skilled furniture makers in the UK who have incorporated my glass into their bespoke pieces. View some f the projects here.

I am an award winning glass designer & maker working with glass for over 30 years. I trained in 3D design, traditional stained glass and lost wax casting. I set up my own practice in 2000.

My studio is on the edge of the beautiful Lake District and when I am not making glass, I love to run in the mountains and swim in the lakes. A never ending source of inspiration !

I work to commission creating bespoke, one off glass projects on all scales for private and commercial clients. More often that not, especially with private clients, they have never commissioned an artist or craftsperson before and so with this in mind this link takes you through the process.

As you can see, Its really straightforward!

My studio is open most days of the week, however I do recommend you make an appointment to visit just in case I am out fitting glass or walking my dog!

This link will take you to dates and venues where I will be exhibiting my work & when I am holding open studio events here at The Factory. I look forward to seeing you!

My studio and glass making equipment has evolved over the last 24 years. For the last 10 years I have been in my wonderful, light filled studio here at The Factory. It is close to the town centre of Kendal, on the edge of the beautiful English Lake District.

View the studio here. I have equipment available to hire too!

Working on one off, bespoke glass commissions requires me to work closely with clients at all stages of the project. Close working relationships are formed with some clients becoming great friends.

It is always a wondeful thing when the project is completed and clients are happy. Click to read some nice words!

I am often asked if I hold glass making workshops at the studio. It is currently not something I offer however, I am trying to find a way to incorporate teaching in to the studio alongside my commission work.

I will announce workshops to subscribers in my newsletters. Please sign up and be the first to find out!
