Rob Thompson Furniture & Lamp Maker

https://saos2023.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/Rob-Thompson-wisley-stand-4-600x600.jpg

Designing and making bespoke furniture from my workshop in the Surrey hills. With an emphasis on the tactile nature of timber, the soft feel of a perfect finish, and showing the colour and the grain of each timber to it’s best. Alongside commissions, I make sculptural, organic lamps, laminated from thin pieces of timber, formed into natual shapes. These throw wonderful light and shadow onto adjacent surfaces. I am currently enjoying exploring texture, hand carved into timber surfaces.
