Our Makers Comunity

Our national makers network is only getting stronger...

At Gather Design are working to build something truly special—a community of passionate furniture makers who share our vision for sustainable, high-quality furniture that leaves a positive impact on our planet and our craft.   

We believe, by working together, we can revive the rich legacy of British craftsmanship and tackle some of the biggest challenges in the furniture industry.

The UK imports over £4 billion of furniture annually, much of it produced at significant environmental and social costs.

We’re doing things differently by:   

  • Crafting furniture from sustainably managed, native wood sourced from UK woodlands.   
  • Keeping production local—within 60 miles of our customers—minimising carbon footprints and revitalising regional cabinetry skills.   
  • Reinvesting a percentage of profits back into the Makers’ community to nurture talent and safeguard the future of this craft.   

We’ve embedded cutting-edge, scannable technology into our furniture, offering customers complete transparency about their piece’s journey—from forest to living room.    

Independent makers are at the heart of this movement. Your skills and creativity are essential to restoring the artistry of furniture making and shaping a future rooted in integrity, craftsmanship, and environmental responsibility.    

Together, we can create something meaningful—revitalising local economies, supporting sustainable practices, and building a community of makers who truly care.
