ALEX PRICE
Based in a South Gloucestershire workshop established in 2018, Alex Price aims to produce pieces that become emotionally linked to their owners and turn into future heirlooms. With a signature style of creating tactile timber surfaces for his furniture, the designer also explores rare techniques, such as the Japanese art of shou sugi ban, where oak is scorched to shade it black and preserved without chemicals.
