Hinterland

Hinterland Design is a studio that creates unique work for people to use, enjoy and cherish. They are artists, woodworkers and craftspeople who build by hand using natural materials.

Drawing on twenty years’ experience, Hinterland believes in and stands behind their techniques, designs and finished products. Materials are at the heart of what they make – they provide the initial inspiration for the design, and also provide the user with an innate and ongoing connection to the natural world.

Hinterland care about where they source, prizing local and healthy materials – the importance of  those materials are treated through the building process. The environment shapes the work and everything has a story. It starts with the materials, is shaped by the design and build, then develops through the many hands that use it throughout its lifetime. Designing and making unique objects that we are proud of, that are good for the earth and good for the people that use them is at the core of our practice.
