As well as making one-off commissions, Noel also makes a range of smaller items which can be personalised. Made with the same techniques and skill, these make ideal gifts for weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas and more. After working as a design engineer in Belfast, Noel returned to his schoolboy love of making and studied for a BA(hons) in Furniture Design and Making. His work combines his love of traditional crafts found across the British Isles and his interest in new materials and techniques, resulting in products that are durable, functional and aesthetically pleasing. Being brought up on the family farm in the rural Irish countryside has encouraged Noel to be interested in a sustainable way of living. As a result, Noel increasingly uses locally grown timber, including trees from his own farm.
