Charlie Whinney Design Workshop exists to explore the relationships between materials, people and the environment – and sometimes find where beauty and usefulness meet.
We undertake a wide range of projects that blur the boundaries between fine art, architecture and design, and projects often involve making as well as design and idea generation. The overall intention is to engage with and fully explore and fulfill every brief on many different levels; contextually, ecologically, with beauty and some aspect of innovation.
Currently all of the design work and much of the planning and making is done by Charlie Whinney, and almost everything is made in the workshop in Beck Head, Cumbria, using locally sourced materials.
