The Woodeye Piano project involved stripping away the casework on an existing piano and re-designing and building using Scottish Elm. The piano was used in a recording project. See the film below featuring pianist ‘Phil Alexander’.

gillian price2021-12-04Norman has made several pieces of furniture for us from wardrobes to TV cabinet, all unique and beautiful quality. He works wonderfully with the wood to bring out the most beautiful patterns and finishes everything to the highest standard. He even made shutters and managed to fit them to our rather wonky old house with infinite patience (not sure you should ask him to do that again!). I can't praise Norman's work highly enough. I love it!Su-a Lee2021-11-01Norman is an excellent craftsman. The quality and care, as well as the artistry, is of the highest quality. He is a delight to work with…he suggests artistic solutions to every functional need. I have commissioned 5 tables from him in total and they each give me so much joy, as they are so beautiful. He has also made a fine repair on a table that I made myself 20 yrs ago. His repair solution has added greatly (without taking away any of its simplicity) to the beauty. I can’t rate this man highly enough!Moira Dunworth2015-10-10Wonderful furniture. These are individual pieces of art which will outlive us all and be as gorgeous then as they are now. Not only are these beautifully made but they are 'whacky' and fun. Maybe the best bit is planning and designing them with Norman! Or is it being able to have such a piece in your home forever?
