Journeyman Furniture won the Guild of Ten award for innovation in design and making at the Cornwall Design Fair in association with Hidden Art. There was one award given at the event and it came as a fantastic suprise to Nicholas Langan when he was told that he had won it.

Nancy Pickard of the Guild of Ten said “We were very impressed with the furniture that he makes because he has pushed the boundaries of cabinetmaking with the use of digital technologies in a fresh and imaginative way”. “He is clearly a very talented young maker and we are delighted to help him in his career” enthused Jenny Yates

After a mild grilling by some of the members of the Guild Of Ten, Nicholas was informed that he had won the award because of his excellence in craftsmanship and innovation in design and making. He was awarded a £200 cash prize and invited to show work at the Guild Of Ten shop in Truro over the Christmas period with a front of house display in their window. Journeyman Furniture has a range of gift items that will be available to buy direct from the Guild Of Ten shop leading up to the winter celebrations.

Nicholas Langan of Journeyman Furniture Cornwall designs and handcrafts contemporary furniture of the highest quality to transform your living and working spaces of today and tomorrow.

Nicholas says: “Most of my furniture is made to commission and I like to make the process simple and personal to meet your particular needs. First and foremost we start with a conversation about the piece of furniture you have in mind.  What size, type of wood and the functionality of the piece.  Ideally, I like to meet you in the location where the furniture will be placed so I can get a sense of space and surroundings.”

Journeyman Furniture is known for its imaginative use of wood in the creation of desirable, functional furniture and sustainable forestry practice is supported by using as much native timber as possible.
