a contemporary furniture design studio. Designed and made by hand in Bristol.
Intro
Furniture designed around how you live.
Whyman Furniture design and makes bespoke hardwood
furniture for private homes, architects and interior
designers. Each piece is developed through close
collaboration, from initial sketches through to
installation.
The focus is always the same: thoughtful design,
honest materials and craftsmanship built to last.

What we make:
Freestanding Furniture
Tables, desks, beds, cabinets and seating designed for everyday use.
Fitted Furniture
Wardrobes, shelving and built-in joinery tailored to the architecture of the space.
Bespoke Kitchens
Hardwood kitchens combining practical layout with refined cabinetry.
The Process:
From first conversation to finished piece. Each project begins with a discussion about the space, the materials and how the furniture will be used.
Designs develop through drawings, prototypes and material samples before being carefully made in our Bristol workshop.
CRAFT & MATERIALS
Built from carefully selected, locally sourced hardwoods.
We work primarily with oak, ash and walnut,
chosen for their character and durability.
Traditional joinery techniques are combined
with modern precision to create furniture that
will last for generations.
