Jeremy Broun has been creating innovative designs in wood for over half a century. His story is probably as unique as his furniture creations - being told to 'come back when you're famous' when trying to get galleries to show his work in the1970's - early examples are now being sold as vintage collectibles. His passion for working wood transcends the conventional labels of 'artist', 'carpenter' or 'luthier' but simply celebrates the versatility of this valuable resource, on loan to us on planet Earth.

About Jeremy Broun

Jeremy Broun established a small furniture workshop in Bath in 1973 and without any capital and with limited tools created his own unique style of furniture designs shaped very much by those limitations. Early travels to Scandinavia and later a Churchill Travel Scholarship to Sweden, Finland and Italy visiting factories and workshops influenced his approach. His journey is documented in a series of videos called The Carpenter's Tale.

Jeremy Broun's lifetime passion for wood and furniture has culminated in a major project called 'Furniture Today' - where he uniquely documents the designer maker revolution against a historical backcloth of furniture dating back to the Magna Carta. He tells the inside story of the 1970s British Craft Furniture Revival that he was part of and which has paved the way for the work of today. Watch preview videos
