Here at Industrial Modern Furniture, we are often asked to do on-site visits to assess a client's needs. Every project is special, but recently, we had a wonderful opportunity to work right here within our own local community—a project that was truly close to our hearts.

If you’re looking for something that carries more weight—both literally and figuratively—it’s time to step away from the high street.

This Bespoke drinks cabinet started as a Rustic Slate Effect Ceramic Tile! The hues of brown and grey slate inspired John to combine different media and engineer a unique design of a cabinet. This design highlights the shades of colour in wood, solid steel and steel features.

If you are a dog owner, the safety of your beloved pet is of the utmost importance. Therefore, when our customer requested a home consultation, we visited to measure up and chat through designs. Often our homes have driveways and open plan entrances to gardens, which of course, aren’t safe spaces for the family pooch to play and roam freely. After a good look at the criteria that needed to be met, we etched out designs that met the 'Fleur-de-lis' design brief! Some customers love an ornate look and others a more modern design, anything is possible, and the best part of the service, as seen in these photos, is we can quote to supply only or install efficiently. If you know John, you'll know 'precision ' is his middle name! So it won't surprise you that when a magnetic spirit level is required for accuracy, and planting of steel posts quickly, precision is achieved! John will install the zinc primed and powder-coated posts to allow time for them to set and cure in the concrete, before tarmac is relaid if such a finish is required. He has a solution for all surfaces; patios, paving or tarmac can all be catered for, so if you have a vision, don't hesitate to ask how to go about it.

One Saturday in Autumn, John and Karen visited the PCC on a mission to remove and repurpose old church pews. John was taken by the detail of the pew end 'cut outs' .....such intricate designs full of church history. The vision for St George's was to create a reflective, quiet space, for anyone to rest a while, pray,.
