Reclaimed oak
Dining Table
Bespoke dining furniture handcrafted from reclaimed oak and steel, designed to bring warmth, character and craftsmanship into the heart of the home.
The Brief
The client wanted a dining table that would become the centrepiece of their home. It needed to comfortably seat family and friends while reflecting the character of the property using reclaimed materials that would only improve with age.
The Challenge
Sourcing reclaimed oak with boards wide enough to create a seamless tabletop while preserving the natural grain and character. The steel framework also had to provide exceptional strength without taking attention away from the timber.
THE PROCESS
Crafted with
Care
Every Found & Formed project follows a considered process. From sourcing reclaimed materials to the final finish, every decision is made with longevity, practicality and craftsmanship in mind.
The finished Result
The finished piece combines reclaimed oak with handcrafted steelwork to create a dining table that is both practical and timeless. Built to be used every day, it brings warmth, character and lasting quality to the heart of the home while showcasing the beauty of reclaimed materials.

Steel & Oak Staircase
Bespoke steel staircase with reclaimed oak treads, designed and fabricated to connect two levels while complementing the character of this converted brick building.
The Brief
The client needed a staircase that would connect the new mezzanine level while respecting the industrial character of the building. It needed to feel strong, understated and built as though it had always belonged within the space.
The Challenge
The staircase had to fit precisely within an existing opening while working around original brickwork, varying floor levels and limited installation space. Every measurement had to be exact to ensure a seamless fit.
THE PROCESS
Crafted With Precision
Every staircase is fabricated specifically for its location. From measuring on site to welding the steel frame and fitting the reclaimed oak treads, every stage is completed with accuracy to achieve a clean, solid finish.
The finished Result
Built To Last
Combining fabricated steel with reclaimed oak created a staircase that feels contemporary while remaining sympathetic to the original building. Designed for daily use, it provides strength, warmth and character without overpowering the space.

Bespoke Memorial Bench
Designed and handcrafted in memory of Jack Owen Bower, this bespoke memorial bench was created to celebrate a life through craftsmanship. Combining fabricated steel, natural timber and personal details, every element was carefully considered to create a lasting place for family, friends and the local community to remember.
The Brief
The brief was to create a completely bespoke memorial bench that celebrated the life of Jack Owen Bower while providing a lasting place for family, friends and the local community to reflect. Every element needed to be personal, durable and capable of withstanding years of outdoor use without compromising on quality or craftsmanship. The finished piece needed to honour Jack’s memory while becoming a permanent feature that would continue to serve the community for generations
The Challenge
Unlike a standard fabricated bench, every component had to be purpose designed around the memorial itself. The laser cut backrest, engraved timber armrests and fabricated steel framework all needed to work together while preserving the personal details that made the bench unique. Every cut, weld and finish had to be completed with precision to ensure the final piece was not only structurally sound but worthy of the story it represents.
THE PROCESS
Designed to Remember
More than a memorial bench, this project was about creating a lasting place where family, friends and the community can pause, reflect and remember.
Built To Be Remembered
This memorial bench was built to honour the life of Jack Owen Bower, combining bespoke steel fabrication, handcrafted timber and personalised detailing into a lasting place of remembrance. Every element was carefully made by hand in our workshop, creating a piece that will be appreciated for generations to come.

Handcrafted Oven Door
Designed and fabricated entirely from scratch, this custom chimney oven door combines traditional workshop craftsmanship with precision steel fabrication. Built to complement the character of the space, it delivers smooth operation, lasting durability and a feature that is as practical as it is distinctive.
The Brief
The client wanted a completely bespoke oven door for a traditional chimney opening that would be both practical and in keeping with the character of the space. The door needed to be robust enough for everyday use while incorporating a smooth sliding mechanism and handcrafted detailing throughout.
The Challenge
With no off-the-shelf solution available, every component had to be designed and fabricated from scratch. The biggest challenge was engineering a sliding rack and pinion mechanism that delivered effortless operation while maintaining the handcrafted appearance and durability expected from a bespoke feature built to last.
THE PROCESS
From Design To Installation
This project moved through four carefully planned stages, beginning with the design and fabrication of the steel framework before progressing through assembly, finishing and installation. Every detail was refined to ensure the completed door looked as though it had always belonged within the original chimney.
The finished Result
The completed oven doors combine handcrafted steel fabrication with a bespoke sliding mechanism to create a feature that is both practical and visually striking.
Designed specifically for the existing chimney opening, the installation retains the warmth and character of the original fireplace while providing improved control, safety and everyday usability.
Built to be used and enjoyed for years to come, the finished piece brings together traditional styling, precision engineering and honest craftsmanship in a way that feels completely at home within the space.

Reclaimed Stone Outdoor Table
Crafted using reclaimed quarry stone, structural steel and hand finished timber, this outdoor table was built to create a durable dining space with natural character and long lasting function.
The Brief
The brief was to create a unique outdoor dining area using reclaimed stone as the foundation for the table and seating. The finished space needed to feel solid, practical and in keeping with the surrounding garden, while turning the raw materials into a feature that could be used every day.
The Challenge
The main challenge was working with heavy, irregular reclaimed stone and turning it into a usable outdoor structure. Each stone section needed to be positioned, drilled and supported correctly before the steel and timber elements could be added. The design had to balance weight, stability, comfort and character without losing the natural feel of the materials.
THE PROCESS
Built Into The Landscape
This outdoor dining space was shaped around reclaimed quarry stone, structural steel and timber seating. Each element was positioned and built to create a solid, practical feature that feels naturally part of the garden while adding weight, character and everyday function.
The finished Result
The finished outdoor table brings together reclaimed quarry stone, structural steel and timber seating to create a unique dining space with real weight and character. Designed to sit naturally within the garden, the piece feels permanent, practical and built to last.
