Range development, brief to production samples
We take a brief and a design direction and turn it into production-ready samples — working with your designers, specifying and costing the product, running the sample rounds and signing off quality.
We help furniture and homewares brands take products from brief to shelf — made well, shipped on time and built to sell.

We find, vet and develop manufacturing partners in Asia, and manage the relationship through to production — briefing, sampling, pricing, quality checks, and fixing problems when they come up.
We help you decide what to make, when to launch it and what to retire. You get a clear plan covering range structure, price architecture, release windows and priorities.
We build small custom tools and AI workflows that take repetitive work out of product teams — development trackers, listing and data prep, supplier and spec management.
And pretty much anything product-related in between. Projects are scoped as a fixed fee or a day rate.

Working with your designers, we specify materials, finishes and construction, and cost the product.
We brief the factory and run the sample rounds until the product is right in the hand.
Quality is signed off for production, with packing and assembly checked before anything ships.
A sample can look perfect in photos and still be wrong in the hand.
Everything measured against the spec, every time. Being 5mm out on a bed rail matters.
Push it, lean on it, rock it. If it moves on the factory floor, it will move in someone's home.
Colour matched across timber, fabric and metal — checked in daylight, not just under showroom lights.
Hardware, joins, slat spacing, edges. The small things are what customers notice first.
A great product that arrives damaged, or takes an hour to build, is a bad product.

James spent nearly four years as Product Manager at Ellison Studios, working across the whole product lifecycle with a small, design-led team. He now runs product at Seek & Ramble, our own brand — so the challenges of making and importing furniture are ones we deal with every day.
