Hi, this is Clare from Hong Kong.
I am a furniture designer and maker.

I began my woodwork journey through a designer-maker course at Waters & Acland Fine Furniture School in 2021. Without any prior experience, I took on a steep learning curve and developed my furniture-making skills and knowledge within a year.

To follow my passion in designing and making, I continued my journey by renting a workshop space. I started to take commissions, design and make with client’s brief by braiding their stories and details into a bespoke piece. In September 2022, I took the school offer from the Snowdon School of Furniture at Highgrove Traditional Craft, a design-led program fully funded by generous donors from The Prince’s Foundation.

Currently, I am honing my skills and further developing my craftsmanship in the industry. If there are any ideas either for designing a piece or collaboration, I am more than happy to do so, please get in touch!
