Hugo grew up in Suffolk and developed his natural interest in country matters and craftsmanship skills.

After leaving school in Dorset in 2011 he attended a course in fine furniture making with an established contemporary practitioner in Oxfordshire.

After completing the course Hugo joined a small general joinery firm near Witney to learn broader carpentry skills before being given a position at Coryndon Ltd in 2017.

This is a specialised business in bespoke design for boutique markets and high net worth individuals. Hugo has now branched out to follow his passion and offer custom solutions for both project based work and individual quality items.
