Today we’ve done a short research for wallpaper in Stafford. We found some nice patterns…but for Art & Craft Workshop..mmm..not!
We want something non-figurative/abstract..lively in the same time…
We’ll see! We are still undecided.

But we found this pattern bellow for the downstairs showroom – Workshop! DECIDED!

This table is dedicated for specific types of existing machines in workshop. The FUNCTIONALITY is our PRIMARY THOUGHT. We measure, we draw plans, we decide concepts and design furniture for each existing tool.
We respect every step in interior design to be able to face every problem.

WORK TABLE designed for two Knitting machines, Sewing machine, its accessories and storage.
“FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION”…to quote Louis Sullivan (American architect) who described the the industrial design in the 20th century.
MDF material can be beautifully shaped and is accessible for Susan’s budget as well.

I’ve just looked for the full quote of LOUIS SULLIVAN:
“It is the pervading law of all things organic and inorganic,
Of all things physical and metaphysical,
Of all things human and all things super-human,
Of all true manifestations of the head,
Of the heart, of the soul,
That the life is recognizable in its expression,
That FORM EVER FOLLOWS FUNCTION. This is the law.”

We’ve just designed a door for our ShowHome!Of course, BESPOKE DOOR, SOLID WOOD: European Oak, American Walnut and Maple Birdseye.
Yes…I think you’ve already figured out where this door will be. Along with the latest bed and the funky wardrobe will make a perfect match.
So, have a look at these 3D drawings and next week we can see the real door!
Mmmm…I can’t wait!

The owner of the TopItAll Workshop Susan, loves this area. Impatient as usual, she already installed her printing machines, ready to use.
The place started to be a great environment.

The hidden lights under the cubboards lighten warmly the utility area.
The sockets are on the wall, easily used for printers and other tools.

We really needed a tiling wall because of the sink placed in this area. And because we wanted to avoid the kitchen features, we chose these special tiles, that seem to be painted and its shape is randomly on the wall. The tiles are not perfectly square, showing the imperfection of a beautiful Hand-Made Art, which is the main work here, in the Craft shop.

We always think forward, for a good economy of heat and money as well. Loft thermal insulation! You can feel the difference!

No. 1 is working to finish the drawers for the workstation.

The cupboards are assembled along with all handles.

Susan came and she was already thinking how to store her stuff.
